Hey guys i was looking for some help here because well i'm at a brick
wall...

I picked up 10 cdrws case everything needed for the project. Picked up
a 133ata controller card has raid on it. well when I hook up the cdrws
to the ata controller card the system will not. but if I hook a hd up
to the controller card and only a hd the system will boot and xp will
see the drive everything is good but when I hook a cdrw up again it
willnot boot... acts like it doesn't see the boot drive.

now my question is could it be the controller card. Do i need one that
doesn't have raid on it ... do I need something else. This was done on
a budget and am trying to stay away from scsi.

I dont' need to know about power issues that is covered.

I have pics of all this if you wanna see

You have to excuse the trolls that assume this and never have anything to
offer to your problem. Post more about the hardware you have and advice can
be offered hopefully within your budget.
