Guest Cookie Posted December 31, 2002 Report Share Posted December 31, 2002 Madboy33. Audio - Video or data?I've always understood it's best not to mix the HD with CD-ROM/RW because of possible conflicts.Audio is always best to copy via HD. Copying 'on the fly' can give you 'pops' and 'skips' etc.Data is no problem because any small gaps are ignored.DVD I haven't had any experience of.Good luck with the outcome. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark2 Posted January 1, 2003 Report Share Posted January 1, 2003 In the back of the unit close to where ide cable plugs in there ought to be some jumper pins, you will need to reset these, maybe even a listing close to the pins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark2 Posted January 1, 2003 Report Share Posted January 1, 2003 you should see a total of 6 pins 2 probably covered over by a clip/jumper * * * * * * Probably labelled C/s , M, S to set it to slave you need to put the jumper on the S pins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
