| subject: | CD-ROM audio cable |
I require some help or suggestions with a problem here. I recently lost my old computer and swapped the ISA proprietey SoundBlaster card into which a Creative or Panasonic drive plugged directly into the Sound card. Now I'm running a new CD-ROM drive on IDE 1 and I noted the analog audio cables do not match. These are both female connectors I'm speaking of. The old cable for the Creative CD-ROM drive is wired blank, white, black, red with red to the side of the drive while the new CD-ROM's cable goes into the drive as white, blank, black, red Same order but the blank is in a different place on each plug and the pins do not match. Any opionions as to what success or disaster I might face were I to cut off the connector from the PCI sound card and wire it to the end of the cable coming from the sound card soldering the salvaged connector and correcting the wiring order? Sound card works everywhere but with the CD due to the lack of that connection. I want to get audio off the new 40X drive but not let the smoke out of anything. The PCI soundcard is Turtle Beach which I've heard of but lack software for so I'm looking for a workaround for the Sound card I do have working software for loaded, opinions? --- MultiMail/PBellDOS v0.42* Origin: FidoTel & QWK on the Web! www.fidotel.com (1:275/311) SEEN-BY: 633/267 270 @PATH: 275/311 10/345 379/1 633/267 |
