I have a problem with my Mitsumi CD-Rom drive. I had to install it on DMA
channel 6 instead of 5 because of my Ultrastore Controler Card but after many
hours of playing "autoconfig leap frog" it finally worked ok.
Then, I installed both CD Player and CD Trakker 1.5. They both worked ok too.
On a whim I tried to read a music cd, which of course was impossible. After
that read attempt I could not read another CD, except for the playing of music.
Everytime I tried to do just a DIR I would get:
CDR103: CDROM NOT HIGH SIERRA OR ISO 9660 FORMAT READING DRIVE E:
I tried everything including relaoding the CD drivers. I'm using MSCDEX.EXE
VER 2.22, which I got from here. I am so $%#$%@# tired of incompatibil-
ities. I even called California and spoke to someone there who didn't speak
English very well. All he told me to do was reload the software, I think. I
tried different CDs, MG! I was able to read the CDs on other systems that I
couldn't read on the Mitsumi.
It appears that the loading of one of those music players (CD Player or CD
Trakker 1.5) contains the missing factor. I also had to load into the Windows
system director VBRUN001.DLL (or some name like that). I have no idea where to
go from here.
Any help will be greatly apreciated. Dennis
