Its Scsi

No other devs are in the system - well a floppy, but I guess thats not going to cause the problem.

I will check the ID of it somehow (need to google the drive I think)

As for the set up,  the Scsi cable is set for two devices, one the HDD, and then the CD drive.
The CD drive is not attached, but the cable is there...Could that be the issue?


If its not terminated properly, yes.

Hi,  thanks for that.

CD drive added from the original VR machine set up, and all seems fine now! :D


Sounds like the CD drive was the end and termination is on. If you find out how to terminate the drive you can remove the CD drive or attach an active terminator in the CD drives place.
