This weekend I purchased a DVD rom by LG to replace my aging x2 speed CD rom. Unpluged one & plugged in the other. Booted up SuSe 7.1 & regognised immediately, including scsi emulation for cdburning. Tried Win98 to no avail, tried all I knew, still no joy. Reinstalled Win98, now ensoniq 1370 sound card not recognised, luck SuSe recognised it tho' otherwise I wouldn't know what card it was. Spent afternoon on net downloading ensoniq drivers & got one to work. Reinstalled EASY CD & CD Create, still OK.Loaded AOL 6 Ok after only 6 restarts. Installed Trust Roller ball, WIndows won't load anymore. Pissed around for a few more hours, in & out of safe mode, etc. still no joy. To be fair this happened once before & was only cured by a new mouse but not this time. Installed Win95 and am still reinstalling vital packages one at a time with assosciated restarts. You may wonder why i'm bothering with Windows anything. It's because I use Telewest (nee Eurobell) for my telephone and like unmetered access, so have to use AOL wiht its binding to Windows. Can anyone tell me of a solution to thios problem? Anyway the undisputed Pnp champion was undoubtedly SuSe 7.1 by a very long mile.
