If your cdrom doesnt run off of a card you can use a win98 startup disk to
start you computer with cd rom support.

From: "Olushola" Subject: [PCBUILD] I'll try this again: Can't Dectect CD
ROM Drive


Hi.
The boot sequence can't detect the CD Drive. I think I may have erased some
files accidently during a cleanup process (uninstalling).

I'm assuming all I need to do is download some generic 95 CDROM drives and
install them from the floppy, right? If so, where can I get them.
 I don't have the original disks?


It is on the secondary master.  The BIOS secondary is set to auto detect. I
changed it to CDROM but when the boot sequence came to the secondary master,
it said that ATAPI is not comaptible or something like that. So I changed it
back to auto.

The OS is 95 and I'm able to access my programs it just that the CDROM is
not present.

TIA
Olushola Sowande
