I wasn't aware of such a limitation. I have a Pentium classic 200, with 2
HD on the motherboard, 1 HD on the secondary on the mobo, and a IDE CDrom
on the soundblaster 32 IDE port. Are you saying I can't do what I'm
doing, or that I can't put a 4th HD (as a slave on the secondary mobo
port) and stil keep my CD arrangement?
