#Always IN2000/Tosh 3401
Help!!!
Since switching SCSI cards from the Adaptec 1510 (shipped with the CD 3
BlockBuster bundles) to the Always IN-2000 in July, I have been unable to
access my Toshiba 3401E SCSI drive from either DOS or Windows. The drive just
isn't there as far as the system is concerned.
I've just recently gutted up and decided that I'd better tackle the problem and
get things squared away — it's too much trouble to set up the notebook
computer with the Trantor cable every time I need to get to a CD ROM.
I've finally gotten my hands on a cable that works (both my Always utility and
SCANSCSI recognize the CD ROM drive correctly without including a bunch of
silly graphics characters in the name) but I still can't get the CD ROM drive
to work.
I am using the latest Always driver, ASPIDRVR.SYS, dated 8/18/93, and after
that is loaded, the CorelSCSI install program recognizes it and the CD ROM
drive and it is perfectly happy to complete the installation.
However, I still can't access the drive.
The relevant lines in my CONFIG.SYS are:
device=c:\cdutil\aspidrvr.sys device=c:\coreldrv\cuni_asp.sys /e /id:1 /n:1
/d:mscd001
The relevant line in my AUTOEXEC.BAT is:
mscdex /v /m:10 /e /d:mscd001
I have removed the reference to CORELDRV from my PATH statement, and the mscdex
being used is the one from DOS 6.0. I'm using QEMM 6.02.
The cuni_asp.sys file is dated 4/21/92. My CorelSCSI disk is labelled Ver
1.01C.
I have downloaded several files from the library and don't find anything that
addresses the problem I'm having.
Is my problem that I am using an old version of CorelSCSI? If so, how do I
upgrade and how much does it cost? If that's not my problem, what am I doing
wrong?
Any and all help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
liz
