I can see the Iomega SuperDVD 12x in Windows fine. However, I am having major issues creating an effective dos boot disk which will permit me to see the external dvd writer and perform entire system image backups using Ghost.

I have tried the following methods on 3 systems(which can all see the drive fine in Windows) to try to see the drive when booting to DOS:

1) Standard Ghost Boot Disk with CD/DVD drivers
2) Iomega USB Boot disk
3) Dat.exe USB boot disk
4) Stephan's Iomega USB boot disk

Everything fails with the following message, "FAILED TO ASSIGN DRIVE LETTER."

I must note that I can access other USB devices in dos (ie... thumb drives, usb wireless mouse, keyboard)

Iomega will not provide any support for dos issues. I have tried many times. I do not have much time and will need to return the drive within 30 days unfortunately. The following 2 links were provided to me by Iomega but that was all I got. They describe the Iomega method (Step #2 above).

CAN ANYONE..PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE CONFIRM WHETHER OR NOT THEY HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFUL IN BOOTING TO DOS AND SEEING A USB ATTACHED IOMEGA SUPER DVD (4x, 8x, or 12x). And if you have been able to do this, can you please provide me the implementation process ?

Any direction on this would be greatly appreciated.. but I am really looking to find someone who has successfully been able to boot to dos and see either an Iomega SuperDVD 8x or 12x driver attached via USB.


Thanks,
Mike
