If you have a RamFAST, you do not need additional drivers. However,
you must be sure your RamFAST ROM is recent enough to contain support
for the floptical. You can get the current ROM revision number by
running the RamFAST utility program. Post it, and Jawaid (probably)
can tell you whether an update is necessary.
