HI again I.T ppl :P Well i tried to configured that driver for the cdrom, but no effects :( According what u guys gave me , : http://www.driverguide.com/uploads/uploads4/7592.html I check it but , no good results. Could some1 again plz explain step by step how to do it??? I explain again the problem: I have an empty hard disk.( NO OS at all, no dos nothing), and the cdrom doesnt work, but i got the driver already downloaded from the internet. How could i install the drivers to be able to read files from the CDrom, after booting from a floppy disk in the empty hard disk...by the way i had created a C: drive which is empty. I would like to install win95 in the C drive, but i need to read the CD-rom?? Any suggestion, thanx again?? step by step :P bye.

Is your drive EIDE or SCSI compatible? Some old drives had their own standards that will not always be compatible.For EIDE use a boot disk that gives access to CD-ROM drive(Win98 is a good one)and install your OS. This boot disk has many different drivers for the CD-Rom drive.From there the OS should configure the drive easily.Win 95 will ask you if you have a CD-Rom drive.Don't forget that a partitioned HD must also be formated.Your C primary drive must be set active.Good luck.

Have a look at this thread. http://computing.net/windows31/wwwboard/forum/8967.html Just down load a dos 6.22 bootdisk from bootdisk.com. Add your cdrom driver to it. Alter the config.sys and autoexec.bar files to suite. Boot off the disk. Wammo you can access your cdrom.

CR-562 is not an IDE drive. It is usually connected to the sound card. Rquires a driver like CDMKE.SYS. If you can find the sound card install, it would be the best since some require a port address.

Hi guys, well thanx guys for your tips, my last question is..... I download the driver for this device which is : dos_**.exe. I got a DOS bootdisk 6.0, SHould i put that file in my floppy disk or somewhere else??, and how do i configure it in config.sys and autoexec.bat?? what path?? than again.

sorry :P the filename is 56*_dos.exe what changes should i make in the conig.sys and autoexec.bat of my dos bootdisk floppy!. thanx.

config.sys; DEVICE=CDMKE.SYS /D:MSCD001 autoexec.bat; c:\dos\MSCDEX.exe /D:MSCD001 /M:10 You may have to add parameters for the soundcard. ie; [/SBP:nnn] ---> I/F board address option(Sound Blaster) *[/P:nnn] ---> I/F board address option(Other) if Sound Blaster board ex.)DEVICE=CDMKE.SYS /D:MSCD000 /SBP:nnn nnn==220, 240, 260 or 280(Default is 220) Sound Blaster Pro(8bit) 220 or 240 Sound Blaster 16(16bit) 220, 240, 260 or 280 if MKE original or other board ex.)DEVICE=CDMKE.SYS /D:MSCD000 /P:nnn nnn==I/O base port address of interface board
