(from Tim Johnson)
Advanced thanks to anyone who can help.
Win98 will not allow my cdrom to initialize. Upon attempted load/run of any cd, Windows returns a message box with "setcd" in the title bar saying, - "C:WINDOWS\TEMP\SETCD.EXE' IS NOT A VALID MS-DOS PROGRAM FILE. IT MAY BE DAMAGED".
I went into the temp directory and found that a file was placed in there - possibly by the cdrom driver, or by Windows, but is empty. I verified that the file did not contain any commands by viewing it in ms-dos mode. I also did a search for this "setcd" file, and only found the same file in the temp directory - but nowhere else.
I'm not sure from where this file is being written in to the temp directory, - why it does not contain anything in it, - what it should contain, - and/or how to fix this problem period. This was not a problem with Win95. I'm assuming this is not a hardware or driver issue, as I had the cd-rom drive replaced with it's respective driver. The same problem existed with my old cd-rom drive under Win98.
Can anyone help?
Thanks again,
Tim Johnson
