Good Morning!

Trying to install a slot load CDROM in my 1200..   Bought the special 2 device cable from Amikit that changes it from the 44 pin to the standard 40 pin IDE .. (Standard IDE equipment can use this)  I am able to get the CF reader to work no problem, but the secondary channel will not work at all.  I have tried (I think anyway) every possible combination of master, slave, swapped each device and tried both connectors etc...   I even tried 2 other KNOWN GOOD ZIP250 drives and can't get them to work either...

CLEARLY I am missing something so I decided to once again go to the source of all Amiga knowledge so here I am..


My thanks in anticipation!


Have you installed IDEFix97 or equivalent?
