Desperately seeking a Dell CD Driver

I bought a secondhand Dell P/N 89314 CD Rom for my old Laptop Dell Latitude XPI P75. The trouble is it came with no drivers or installation disk.

The computer does not recognise the cd rom or even its plugged into its Parallel Port.

Does anyone know where i can get the installation disk download or drivers? I looked everywhere on the Dell Site.

thanks

First, I went <a href="http://www.affordablecomputers.com/products/3508" target="_blank">here</a> to find out that your Dell P/N 89314 is for a "Dell Latitude CP 24x CD-ROM Variable Internal/External", Model No. 3139T. Then, I went <a href="http://support.euro.dell.com/uk/en/filelib/system.asp?sid=LAT_PNT_PNT_CP&m=o&p=DOS62" target="_blank">here</a> to find the DOS drivers for that particular Dell Latitude model. Download the file entitled "DOS-CDR.EXE" and you should be good to go.

I hope this helps... :D

Hi,

Thanks for the info, I tried that, even thou the file says it can be used on Win 3.* when i tried it it says doesnt run on it and wouldnt install, says cant run on windows platform.

Try booting to a command prompt only, or exiting windows to a command prompt. Then run the install Exe.

Hi,
I tried that, but i notice the readme file says its for Win95 or Win98 even thou where i downloaded it says Win3.11 also.

I still havent found any drivers, even Dell havent replied. Anyone knows where i download the drivers or have a disk they can email me, let me know. :confused:

thanks
