Al;

  Check and see if your cdrom is loading in Dos.
(config.sys, autoexec.bat} If so REM out the lines that are
loading the drivers, and let win95 detect it. You might
 have to remove it first in control panel/system.

I have a 8X samsung and win95 OSR2 finds it easily. It's always better
to avoid real mode drivers in favor of virtual (win95) drivers.
