The following appears in the Win 3.1 README.WRI file and may
"If you are using a CD-ROM drive with Windows 3.1, you should use version
2.21 of Microsoft MS-DOS CD-ROM Extensions (MSCDEX) with all configurations
of CD-ROM drives. If you use version 2.20 or later, you must also remove
the following setting from the [386Enh] section of the SYSTEM.INI file:
device=LANMAN10.386
This setting can cause some CD-ROM drives to timeout and fail with versions
later than 2.20 of MSDCEX. However, if you must use a version earlier than
2.20 of MSCDEX, the above setting is required in the [386Enh] section of
your SYSTEM.INI file."
I hope that this note helps your operation. It seems that there are a good
number of helpful tips in the Win 3.1 readme files that may be handy.
Jeez, I literally poured over all those support files, but since I was
mainly concerned with network issues, that one must have slipped by.
Thanks for pointing it out!
