almost funny that I never considered this.....

Ok Just got around to buying a DVD-ROM drive. Have 2 hard drives and a CD-RW already. I want audio capability out of both optical drives but only have 1 connector on the mobo....What are my options?

Connect the drive without the cable and see if it works... on newer systems it quite often works without the audio cable.

[compusport]

and if not, try the same on the other optical drive (the CD-RW) ?

[compusport]

ignore that reply..... Of course I should try that too

I guess you have onboard. If you do, do what GLC says, if you have a sound card, there is usually two audio cable ports to plug into, one analog, one digital.

If all else fails, get a Y cable http://www.directron.com/tnmxr.html
