Greetings,
I apologize if this has been covered already. I have been searching the forum and the net for the answers I seek. I have a custom 486 retro gaming rig. The 4x cd-rom reads cd-r media. However, it doesn't always work. For example, I sometimes get an "Abort, Retry, Fail?" error. I can "retry" a few times and then I can read a cd-r.
What other alternatives are there for a 486 retro gaming rig and reading cd-r media? One concern is optical drive speed sensitive games, and the ability to play old cd-rom games correctly. The original rig was designed to be as authentic as possible. However, I am changing some thins such as replacing my hard disks with compact flash adapters just to make things easier for me.
