Thanks for your replies

Is the 4 IDE device limitation due to my motherboard, or is this a General limit

Also, if it is not possible to exceed the 4 IDE Devices, is it possible to remove my 1st CD ROM connection & install the ZIP drive instead, I don`t see this as a problem.....However the ZIP drive 100 does not have any jumper settings between the power & IDE connection, as shown in the manual, should I assume that detection iis automatic ??????

Thanks

Keith
