Re: 760ED+Win95/98: Problems accessing CDROM in Ultrabay
Carsten,
I don't have any problems with my CD ROM, but sometimes the 760ED forgets I
have an external floppy when it is connected, and I have to go to control
panel, Add / Remove hardware to get it to work again. You should try this.
Secondly with Win 98, I can't get Hibernate or Suspend to work. If you have
had any luck with this, I sure would be interested in finding out how you
got it to work.
Hope this helps.
Sincerely,
Neil Ripston
