Yes, try the sound card. That's where my CDU31A used to connect. Also, if
I understand correctly, you have a sound card *AND* a CDROM controller
card. My guess is that (due to resource conflicts) you'll have to remove
either the the small, CDROM controller card or the sound card to make the
CDROM work. If it were me, I'd keep the sound card.
And remember: Pin 1 goes on the red-striped side of the ribbon cable.
