Hello, I am searching for drivers for an AST Ascentia A42. I cannot get my CDRom to work when loading an OS (my drive is totally blank), I have partitions setup, and I am to the point where I need the CD to run the Win 95 setup, but no go. Please help me, if you require any other info, just ask ill dig up what I can find! Any help is greatly appreciated!
