IDE-FIX troubles

[Orjan]

I didn´t know whether to post this in software or hardware, but here goes.. :-)

I recently got a 4-way buffered IDE interface, and IDEFIX 97, and I am attempting to put a laptop CD-ROM ( TEAC CD-224E ) into my desktop A1200, but I am having some difficulties..

The harddrive works just as it should with the new buffered interface, but I can´t get the CD to work... I have installed all the software, and the drive seems to be mounted as it should, but when I try to change the unit number to CD0: in Shell, I get a requester stating "Not a DOS disk in unit CD0:".. If I try "Mount CD0:" I get a message saying it is already mounted..

Now, I know the drive is OK, since it works fine in my PC, and the IDE cable is also OK, I have tried two different ones with the same results...

I have scoured the manuals, but I can´t find anything that would help me..

So now I am asking you guys if there is anything I have missed, or some-such? Any help would be appreciated..

I don´t know how to change master/slave config on the CD-ROM, and I already have it on the secondary channel..

I´ll fiddle around some more with it tomorrow... When something does´nt work with my stuff, I usually work with it for hours/days/weeks, and in the end I realize its the most basic, stupid thing I have forgotten... :-)

No, there are no jumpers..

By holding down just the left button I don´t get enything, it just boots as normal...

When the OS it started I do get two weird icons, DF4:? and PC4:?.. I don´t know if this means anything or not?

Whoooo, you're in deep s{bleep}t!

Could you elaborate? :-)

@Boinghead

When I said "elaborate" I meant for you to explain why I was in deep {bleep}.. Didn´t even think about it being a stupid pun.. :-)

@Adolescent

When I run Finddevice, it finds a whole lotta units on different devices, but I chose the one that came up when scanning atapi.device..

@Blobrana

I already have the HD on channel 1, and the CD on channel 2 of the 4-way device...

[Orjan]

Yep, but the IDEFix 97 software comes with updated devices, and I have installed it.. So it should work, atleast in my head.. :-)
