HI,
        To answer both questions (sorry, missed first post).  The driver
is loaded in config.sys, MSCDEX (microsoft cdrom extensions) loads in
autoexec.bat.  To speed up the detection, look in your manual and see if
there is a switch to tell the drivers how many drives to detect.  I had
a problem similiar until I included the switch /n:1 to the statement.
Your drive many have a similiar switch.
