After hotplugging the drive in windows DiscInfo (http://hijacker.rpc1.org/discinfo/) reports that there are no cdrom drives present. I have ordered a slimline IDE adapter from Ebay it should arrive in the next 3 weeks. I will reboot to dos and see what "Binflash -scan -v -v" reports as soon as I can. It's a bit of a pain because my T21 doesn't support boot from USB, so I have to take the drive and my USB thumb drive to another machine. Is there a way to boot from my slimline dvdrom/floppy drive and then do a hotswap in dos?
