I have a Dell Dimension XPS T450, Pentium III 450 Mhz, with 256 MB ram and
Windows ME that won't pickup the CD-RW; an Acer 10x4x32.  This CD-RW drive is on
the secondary IDE connector slave; in the master is DVD drive.  The BIOS will
not let me selected a secondary slave device, the DVD is shown and Device
Manager shows a yellow caution on the second IDE controller.  I cannot install
the Dell IDE drivers as I have on access to either CD drive.  I have enabled
both IDE controllers in both Windows and the BIOS.  Any ideas will be much
appreciated.

Regards,
Mike Scott
