Al;
I would suppose that the 16mb of "missing " memory
is used by onboard video. If you don't have onboard video
your system may just be mis-reporting the amount of memory.
You can usually go into setup and see how much memory is allocated to the
onboard video .
On the file C:\CDROM\CDROM\cdtech.sys problem,
your computer is trying to load this realmode (dos) cdrom driver in your
config.sys
or autoexec.bat. Simply rem out that line(s) and you won't see that error
message.
What is the exact error message you are getting when you try to copy a
floppy
to the hard drive. Can you "see" the files on the floppy?
Is it possible you have dis-lodged a cable when you were swapping out
memory.?

Subject: [PCBUILD] Memory loss
I have a problem.
At first my computer told me I only had 112 meg of memory
and it should have been 128. A loss of 16 meg, so
I assumed the chip was bad, and bought a new 256 chip,
and put it in. However the computer now only shows
240 meg, A loss of 16 meg again.
I can't even copy a floppy to my harddrive.
It also tells me that a file, C:\CDROM\CDROM\cdtech.sys,
is corrupted or missing
PCBUILD maintains hundreds of useful files for download
