- I am having trouble installing a Soundblaster Pro in a Tandy 386/SX 25. Has
- anyone else had problems with adding the Soundblaster to their computer? When
- installed, the software cannot locate the card.
-
- Additionally, I am considering buying a IDE drive but am concerned with problems
- in compatibility if I don't buy it from Radio Shack. Are my concerns unwarranted?
- I am hoping that the Soundblaster problem is with the board not the computer. I
- remember the older Tandy computers had a lot of problems with incompatibility
- so I am a little careful here. I am looking at a Maxtor 170Mb drive. Can I buy
- this mail order and expect it to work?
