My last attempted edit of a startup disk for the #2 computer included the
following:

config.sys

LASTDRIVE=Z
DEVICE=A:\SBIDE.SYS
DEVICE=A:\cdrom.SYS/D:MSCD001

files=30
buffers=30


autoexec

ECHO OFF
A:\MSCDEX.EXE /D:MSCD001



On this disk, I also included the driver file "cdrom.sys" which is listed as
the LiteOn driver in the win2k Control Panel under Systems/hardware/device
manager.

I used the location entry as "DEVICE=A:\SBIDE.SYS" , based on a suggestion
covering instances where the IDE Secondary was used as the interface ----
not sure that this was a proper entry, however.

When using this disk, the DOS sequence stalled out at config.sys ----- prior
to reaching the point of recognizing the CD drive.
