#NEC CDR-83M Driver
5 messages in this thread
Hi Ron, Ok, now I follow your advice and bought the ASW410, and I can't
access any more to my CD : I put in config.sys:
device=aspi4dos with parameters
asw410 /D:aspicd0 and in autoexec :
mscdex /d:aspicd0 /L:G and then if I do "DIR G:" the system hangs!
Any more good idea? NB My disk is a MICROPOLIS 1GB, CDROM NEC 83M and card
1542B Pierre
looks like you need the "device=" in front of the driver in your config.sys
eq, DEVICE=ASPDISK.SYS /D:ASPICD0
thanks for the advice, but I did it, it seems that the problem came from
the version of mscdex so at this time it works with some hangs on
multimedia applications… Pierre
Sorry Pierre, I cannot help you out, as I have not installed a CDROM drive
on my Adaptec host adapter yet. I was merely passing along information to
you that you would need the ASW410 software driver to use a CDROM with your
Adaptec board. I am not familiar with it's actual setup. If you still
need help you could go over to the IBMHW forum and leave a message for Mike
Berhan @ 70303,1111. He works for Adaptec and frequents that forum quite
often. Good luck with your installation.

I work for Sony and use Sony CD-ROM drives with the Adaptec 1541B host
adapter every day. I just got on the forum and noticed your correspondence.
Still having problems with this? (PC only -MSW or DOS. I don't have any
experience with EISA or OS-2.)
