no.

i do indeed have an 8250i but i can read compatibility lists before posting topics. It is fully compatible with 8250i which can read/write DAO+96.

i am tired and therefore sound unappreciative of help, but when that help is useless and uninformed....well...

i have since tracked down the problem myself. the problem was i was using incompatible drivers for my IDE controller, so if any1 else has, or has ever had, this problem that i described then the solution is to change ide drivers which should be straightforward (but in my case needed a full reformat).

so 2 valuable lessons have been learned by myself.
1. ALWAYS fully read helpfiles provided with apps before asking for help at forums. and
2. never use fooking forums.

• What a fricking jerk!!! If you had looked at www.elby.de you SHOULD have noticed there are 2 different hp8250i drives. One's compatable and one isnt. If you were as smart as you think you are you would simply click on clone cd, select the drive and it will tell you if its 100% compatable but i'm sure you will figure it out, One things for sure, i wont help you again!
