Solve : MS-DOS installed on server, drive C; how do I get the CD-ROM on D to work?? |
|
Answer» My server has an A DRIVE, C drive (hard drive), D drive (for CD-ROM), and a second hard drive used as a SLAVE. When I put a CD in the CD-Rom and change to the C drive, D doesn't run. D is included in the autoexec.bat and config.sys files on the C drive. What have I missed? Thanks,Please post your config.sys and autoexec.bat files for us to look at. When I put a CD in the CD-Rom and change to the C drive, D doesn't run. What do you mean "D doesn't run?" What are you EXPECTING to happen? Thank you--both the autoexe.bat and config.sys files have reference to /l:d. D is my CD rom drive. I put a boot disk in the D drive and the server booted right up. The server is a Compaq Reliant I bought in 2000--it does not have USB ports on it. I cannot install the drivers for the USB card I want to install. The server has only MS-DOS on it. I can put the driver CD in D but nothing happens. The boot sequence is A, CD-rom (D), and C. I can put a boot disk in D and boot right up. I can look at the files and directories on the D drive when I have the CD in it but nothing looks like an installation program or autorun. So back to my question: how to I get the d drive to work?READ this article then SEE if you can locate the Panasonic Universal USB driver from a download site. Keep in mind that DOS is not windows and windows drivers do not work under DOS. And if you can see the folders and files on the CD-Rom it is working. |
