[RESOLVED] Needs to set up 4x sony 76E cdrom for DOS

[Rove]

Help if you can, your input would be greatly appreciated. I have to set up my friend computer to be able to run his CD when he is in DOS on his old 486. I have the driver and everything but I need some help. What command would I have to call on the machine in DOS to enable the CDrom to work? He has a sony 4x 76E-Q cdrom.

Thanks for any input.

From the C: prompt
Make Directory CDROM - MD CDROM
Find the files below, either on your hard drive, or on a diskette
Copy the SLCD.SYS to C:\CDROM
Copy the MSCDEX.EXE to C:
Copy the EDIT.COM to C:
After that is done, you will need to add lines to your config.sys and your autoexec.bat
From the C: prompt type in:
EDIT CONFIG.SYS
Add a line to your config.sys to read:
DEVICE=C:\CDROM\SLCD.SYS /D:IDECD000
Then go to file/open and type in AUTOEXEC.BAT
Add a line to your autoexec.bat to read:
C:\MSCDEX.EXE /D:IDECD000
Then go to file/exit and it will ask to save both files ... click YES to both
You'll be back on the C: prompt
Reboot your computer and it should work.
