Jeff,

The Supported Drive list at
http://www.sonicfoundry.com/CDArchitect/drvsupp.asp
are the drives we have tested and should auto-detect
under Select Drive. Drives we have not tested for whatever
reason may not auto-detect or may not work at all. Who is
the Manufacturer of the Back Pack Pro? There is nothing
about a drive being on the parallel port which should make
it harder to detect unless there is a driver conflict
(remove all DOS CD and ASPI drivers!) or it is a drive we
have not had a chance to test.
