A1200 CD Rom Questions

[NAVVARR]

I've got an A1200 with a Blizzard 1240 accelerator with a 128 meg sim.

I used to use it with a CD-Rom drive connected through an IDE splitter.

Anyway, my CD Rom unit failed recently and I bought a new one.

I've also recently reinstalled Workbench 3.0 and also reinstalled my registered copy of IDEFix97- but the CD Rom is playing up- it works for about 2 mins- then gets glitchy- it doesn't seem to read the discs when I put them in.

I've now reordered a new CD Rom,- s Samsung SCR-3232 -since its the most similar I could find to my original- but does this really matter? -will any CD-Rom work with my A1200 with IDE Fix?

-also, I seem to have to include an entry into my A1200's start up sequence- its asking me to put IDEfix or LoadIDE reset behind setpatch in the start-up sequence...

-how do I edit the start up sequence?? -i've done it before- years ago, but I really can't remember - it would be great to get my A1200 back up and running and get some old classics like Genetic Species and T-Zero running again.

-one more question- when I receive my replacement CDrom drive- do I set it as master, or slave?

Thanks to anyone who can help me out on here...

One small problem- i can locate and download IDEfix 3.5- which is great- but how do i get it onto a floppy for my amiga!! -as far as i now PC and Amiga floppies- don't mix... or do they?
