[RESOLVED] DVD Dos Drivers

[stevej]

Does anyone know where I can find dos drivers for DVD CD-Roms?

[Gumby]

Two Questions:

IDE or SCSI?
Do you just want the thing to read CD-ROMs in DOS or do you actually want it to read DVDs in DOS?

IDE, and we actually have a need to read a dvd in dos.

[Gumby]

I have never seen anything that will let you read DVDs in DOS? Can I ask why would you want to do that?

[stevej]

A government program they want to run in dos. I know...kinda goofy.

Have you tried a DOS cd-rom driver?

------------------
The problem with your machine sir is that the nut behind the wheel has a screw loose.

Ghost 2002 says to install a driver for the DVD / CD in the DOS boot floppy.

How ever I have not been able to find any drivers for DVD's in DOS.

If you have found a solution please let me know.

Most dvd drives don't need a driver... the driver is not the usual sort, it actually needs a ASPI driver. Ghost comes with the most used ASPI layers.

Your problem will be that Ghost is not compatible with all DVDs

this is for 2003

The list is for 2003, 2002s list was much shorter and did not support usb dvd or cds.

Thanks for the information !

I guess I'll need to upgrade to the newest version of Ghost.
I did down load the files from one of the links that you sent me.

Your help has been much appreciated.
