Hallo dear helpers I am using a CD-ROM drive MITSUMI CRMC–LU005S. No problems with audio and normal data. But it just would not read KODAK photos from demo disk with softsare on the same disk. It seems as if the drive had problems reading, and after some time it reports a system error. However photo nr 1 can be read, although terribly slowly. My system is a 468/33 with 8MB. CONFIG.SYS LASTDRIVE=Z BREAK=ON SHELL=COMMAND.COM /E:1024 /P DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE 1024 RAM I=B000-B7FF I=E000-EFFF DOS=HIGH, UMB COUNTRY=41,,C:\DOS\COUNTRY.SYS BUFFERS=10 FILES=40 DEVICEHIGH=C:\DRIVERS\EANSI.SYS STACKS=9,256 DEVICEHIGH=C:\DRIVERS\RAMDRIVE.SYS 1024 /E DEVICEHIGH=C:\STACKER\SCREATE.SYS E: DEVICEHIGH=C:\STACKER\STACKER.COM /EMS @ @ D:\STACVOL.DSK /P=1 DEVICEHIGH=C:\STACKER\SSWAP.COM D:\STACVOL.DSK DEVICEHIGH=C:\DRIVERS\MTMCDE.SYS /D:MSCD001 /P:300 /A:0 /M:20 /T:5 /I:10 /X AUTOEXEC.BAT @ECHO OFF PROMPT $P$G PATH=C:\DOS;C:\DRIVERS;C:\BATCH;C:\NORTON;C:\TOOLS;C:\PCTOOLS;C:\STACKER LOADHIGH C:\DRIVERS\SMARTDRV.EXE SET TEMP=C:\TMP SET TMP=C:\TMP SET TZ=EST-2EDT SET SUPERFAX=D:\SUPERFAX\,D:\SUPERFAX\ VERIFY ON REM LOADHIGH C:\DRIVERS\MOUSE.COM LOADHIGH C:\DRIVERS\DFIMCOM.COM LOADHIGH C:\DRIVERS\MSCDEX.EXE /D:MSCD001 /M:10 /E /L:R LOADHIGH C:\DOS\KEYB SG C:\TOOLS\SCRNSAVE.COM -10>NUL LOADHIGH C:\DOS\DOSKEY.COM C:\DRIVERS\PF.COM REM THE CHECK LINE BELOW PROVIDES ADDITIONAL SAFETY FOR STACKER DRIVES. C:\STACKER\STACKER E: C:\STACKER\CHECK /WP Can anybody give me a hint as to what the problem might be and what I could do about it? Thanks a lot Alex Stierli, Zuerich, Switzerland

Alex, Joel White is our online technical person. His CIS ID is 71333,727. You might get in touch with him. He should be able to help you sort your problem out. It sounds like there is a driver or controller card problem, but I am not familiar with all of the drive/driver/controller card combinations for Photo CD compatibility. You also can call the Kodak Customer Assistance Center at 800-242-2424, ext. 53, and they will work with you in realtime. Regards … Paul

Hi Paul Thank you very much for the hint. I also got the advice not to load the driver into high mem. I shall do that and then, if I have no success, contact Joel White. Regards … Alex
