Hi,

i have a XSurf and I can tell you that you do not need IDE-Fix software to use it, the Xsurf has its own driver and you CAN boot from the Xsurf if you have an Algor with flashrom and put the driver in the flashrom (I have it this way and IDE devices connected to the Xsurf show on early startup on cold boot). It's not recommended to use CDroms/burners on it though.

Cheers

hehe.. yes, I said Xsurf, not Xsurf II.. the thread seems to talk about the nd version though.. sorry

regarding cdroms, yes.. you can use cdroms, it's the cd burners that have problems.
