*** HELP!!! *** Ever notice how this sort of problem occurs when you try to install something late Friday night and you know you can't get technical support until Monday morning? I have one PC in which I had recently installed the SoundBlaster Pro Multimedia Upgrade Kit (SBPro card and INTERNAL CD-ROM drive) with very little problem (apart from the DOS 5.0 SETVER necessity which is mentioned nowhere in the documentation or read.me files). I therefore decided to purchase an external version for my other PC which already has two diskette drives. This is the SoundBlaster Pro Card version 2.0 and the EXTERNAL CD-ROM drive and additional card. I still can't get the damn thing to work!!! It plays audio CDs no problem but refuses to access any of the data CDs I have, which work perfectly well on the other PC and the other drive, such as MS Bookshelf, Sierra's Jones… I get the following message: CDR103: CDROM not High Sierra or ISO-9660 format reading drive D. I am running the SoundBlaster Pro control version 1.02, their CD-ROM device driver version 1.12 and MSCDEX version 2.20 on a Dell 333P PC with 8 MB RAM and a 50 MB hard-disk. HELP!!! ;-(
