Unable to Get LiteOn CD-RW Drive Recognized i n DOS
Am trying to adapt my "CD Rescue" dos backup program to work with a 2nd
computer equipped with a LiteOn CD RW drive instead of the Plextor drive installed in my #1 computer. Both computers are using win2k operating system. The CD Rescue program is a DOS based program The LiteOn drive is model SOHR-5238S My LiteOn drive is recognized by my BIOS in the #2 computer , but I've been unable to get it recognized in DOS when using the modified CD Rescue floppy start up diskette. I assume the problem is due to my failure to properly modify the "config.sys" and "autoexec.bat" files on my startup diskette. The startup disk for the Plextor equipped #1 computer include the following entries for these respective files: The autoexec entry is: A:\MSCDEX.EXE /D:PLEX0001 The config.sys entries a Last drive=Z DEVICE=A:\ASPI8XX.SYS DEVICE=A:\SYMCD.SYS /D:PLEX001 DOS=UMB Files=30 buffers=30 Any suggestions as to changes that I should make in these two files to enable the LiteOn drive to be recognized in DOS would be much appreciated. |
