Subject:CW and 2.5" IDE cables - Re: Someone just please please help!!!

Hello Michael

for a nightmare! I melted

> cable.... and i'm not sure if it fully works anymore :(

You too. I had exactly the same :-(
The clock port is hidden behind my Ateo bus expansion and it only takes one
pin out of place to set fire to that cable.

I ran the CW on the IDE port for ages but eventually managed to make a lead
fromthe original CW cable headers and a 2.5" IDE drive cable. A bit fiddly
but it worked. It seesm to any=way ;)

What a nightmare trying to find the cable and connectors for the very thin
2.5" IDE type cable though !

Regards,

Bill.
