Let me know what drive you have etc..
Manhole CD's been out since Oct. '90 and strictly conforms to MSCDEX. It
has almost 100 audio tracks, unfortunitly some of the drivers out there
don't execute the audio status command and/or the get table of contents
stuff correctly in this situation.
We have test discs and diagonistic programs that can pinpoint the exact
problem. The only Multi Media bundle we've heard of that seems to be
causing a problem is Mediavision, I've sent them email and I expect we'll
track down this one too…. You also might want to run the disc from DOS
and not from Windows.
So far the following drives have had MSCDEX driver revisions to solve these
problems:
1. Hitachi
2. Chinon
3. Future Domain
4. IBM
5. NEC
Let me know what's up (your hardware etc…).
