I am like so embarrased. I forgot to plug the power into the scsi drive. Then I neglected to turn of the computer before I plugged the scsi drive in and I got to see some pretty fire works in my computer. Then the computer shut off and wouldn't turn back on. The first thing I thought was that I fried my mother board. One of my friends (the one who got me involved in Linux) who is a computer tech said I just made, at the least, a $59 mistake because that is what it would cost me for a new motherboard. Then I took it over to his house and it turned on. Thank GOD that I have a suge protector (I think that's what saved it). So we then spent three hours at his house playinq Konquest. That is a very cool game. It is like risk except you can't see the armies on the way to their destination. At that time I also found out that that a pendrive is auto detected. I had the 'Removable disks' directory open (a directory that has a link to the floppy drive and cd-rom) and when he pluged the pen drive into the USB port a new directory appeared. Now why in the world won't my camera work!
