But I trieds it and got the following results: 1, The audio CD in the first drive was not found (it has the sound cable). 2. The audio CD in the second drive was found and the track were shown and began playing. But no sound which I owuld expect since there is no sound cable. Would others agree that you can sound from a CD without a sound cable? ======================================================================= You prefer the company of the opposite sex, but are well liked by your own. ======================================================================= Aaron Konstam telephone: (210) 656-0355 e-mail: akonstam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
