: Thanks alot for all your help,

I believe I was the one who said they wrote a hack to read audio CDs from 
a CD-ROM drive.  Iwrote it indeed for an NEC drive I was borrowing.  So I 
have no way of making something useful as my NEC is much older and does 
not support the SCSI commands to it.  Now if you buy me a drive we can 
talk.  <grin>
