Can anyone tell me where to find a parallel
port IDE drive for WINNT4 or 9x. I have an
old external CD-ROM drive case I want to put a 640 MB IDE drive in and use to transfer large files between machines that are not networked.

If you have a spare machine / laptop try using a parralel Laplink Cable and go to start - programs - accessories - communications - direct cable connection. This is the simplest method of networking two pc's temporarily. Otherwise buy yourself an external Iomega Zip or Jazz drive - you won't regret it.
