What do I need to do?
Learn the basics of DOS for a start...
You need an autoexec.bat and a config.sys on the c drive
In those files you need the driver.sys for the cd rom in the config.sys file
an example is here
I was wrong the mscdex.exe goes in the autoexec, the driver.sys file goes in config.sys... but then I haven't done a dos machine for a while now :)
The driver.sys file line in the config.sys file example is DEVICEHIGH=C:\MTMCDAI.SYS /D:123 it will probably be different in your config.sys.
When I used to run 98SE and had some old games (Ultima 7) I had to make pif's and the base lines were similar to these:
autoexec.bat line says:
c:\windows\command\MSCdex.exe /D:MSCD001
config.sys:
device=atapi_cd.sys /D:MSCD001 /P:1F0,14 /P:170,15 /P:1E8,12 /P:168,10
Thanks CCT that was just the ticket !
