Ok, I had a problem earlier with getting a cdrom to work. I am using a windows 98 boot disk. I have located the proper driver for the cdrom.


I have just found out that I need to load pcmcia drivers as well. I have no idea how to do this. I am not exactly a dos wizard. I need to load the pcmcia drivers, then load the cd rom drivers so i can access the cd rom.

can anyone, anyone at all help me?

I have checked toshibas site and no worthwhile info was found.

There is a Port/Noteworthy PCMCIA CD ROM driver for DOS on Toshiba's Portege 3010 resource page. The file is called p301cdrd.exe.

Installation instructions are included.

Other than that, perhaps you could try PCMCIA managers like Cardsoft or Phoenix Card Manager, although I think these are commercial programs.
