: Nope. The RAMFast+CD setup has been able to play music CD's for some

: 1. There is a folder: SYSTEM/DRIVERS/MEDIA.CONTROL (i.e. a folder named
: "Media.Control" in the DRIVERS folder). In Media.Control should be your
: CD-ROM driver-- e.g. RF.NEC-- and Media.Setup. If Media.Setup is not
: present, don't worry. This file will be created when you setup and exit
: the MediaControl control panel.
: 2. The MediaControl control panel is in SYSTEM/CDEVS. In MediaControl,
: click Channel 1, pick your driver, pick a port.
: 3. A CD-ROM player NDA, like MediaControl.DA, is installed.
: 4. The leads to your amp or headphones are plugged into the CD-ROM drive's
: output. Often, this is a mini stereo jack on the front of the CD-ROM
: drive. (i.e. The sound does not go through your IIgs stereo board.)
: Once the MediaControl control panel is set up, you should be able to
: start the CD-ROM player NDA and try out your favorite CD's.
Well, I have all this stuff installed and it crashes whenever an
audio CD is installed. My friend has a newer Rev. D. and a newer ROM and
he can do it. Something is wrong... :(
