Hello Thurston - 

CA>> I finally got fed up with the burner I have now and went
CA>> out and bought one of those 'double layer' DVD RW burners
CA>> that also does CDRs and CDRWs. 

CA>> Won't work here. Either it's my BIOS (Award) or my boot
CA>> manager but something gives me a "DMI pooling data"
CA>> message and the boot process stops before ever accessing
CA>> the bootmanager's files on the hard drive. :-\ 

CA>> Tried several combinations as master, as slave, etc. Only
CA>> the DVD burner and hard drive - and a few other
CA>> combinations. 

CA>> Looks like I'm going back to the store for a CDRW and then
CA>> praying _that_ isn't going to conflict with my legacy
CA>> hardware here. :-\ 

CA>> Hey, I tried, I really really tried. :-\ 

TA> (We believe you Charles!-) Which unit was it into what mobo
TA> please? 

MicroAdvantage DVDRW dual layer 16x.
