Jim --
That hasn't been mostly true in the last year or two. I've been using a
"universal" ATAPI CD-ROM driver (D011V200.SYS) for the last year or so that
works on most CD-ROM's I've come across, whether ones I buy new or ones already
existing in client computers. It does not need the IRQ and I/O information to
find and initialize the CD-ROM. The statement for it in config.sys is:
DEVICE=C:\[folder]\D011V200.SYS /D:MSCD001
...and it finds most CD-ROMs just fine.
