Hi Neal - Well, I'm not clear on just why, but it could relate to a
peculiarity of how that particular MB handles those channels and/or how the
OS enumerates them. (It occurs to me that this might be a Plug'nPlay issue,
also. You might want to disable that service and then try deleting and
reinstalling the optical drives one at a time using the original install
media that came with them. Restart PnP after you finish) I don't see any
obvious reason why it would hurt, so why not? Neal, I'm going to be leaving
this thread (I'm going in for some fairly major 'body work' :) and will be
out of these newsgroups for a while), but I've asked some of my fellow MVP's
to take a look at this thread and see if they can offer any assistance to
you (may be better anyway, since I haven't done you much good :) ) Good
luck with this!
