I have a VIA VP3 M/board (I think thats the chipset) It is socket 7 and AT. Win 95b would'nt detect a duel fifo IDE bus thing so I tried the drivers on the CD with the M/board. After this, the computer wouldn't read the CD-ROM drive whatsoever, I always get the message 'drive is not ready' or whatever it is saying that there is no disk there. Well obviously there is a disk there. I have tried setting the CD Drive on the same IDE Channel as the HD, prim slave but Win won't start at all then.

Can anyone help me please? this is serious, I cannot do work without my CD-ROM Drive nor play UNreal which I recently bought or War of the Worlds or even Quake 2.

Thanks for your help people.
