I have a Texel DM-3024 CD-ROM drive and Adaptec 1540B SCSI controller. I can not seem to get the Kodak PhotoEdge software to recognize my drive. I have the latest ASPI4DOS.SYS driver and the drive works fine for DOS files and CS audio. Does anyone have a clue to what my problem is? The PhotoEdge manual says something about some Photo-CD access softare on the sample Photo-CD but I can't seem to find anything like that. Help!! Thanks! Brian

Brian, From your message I am not sure you if you have all the right drivers loaded. In your Config.sys you need two lines like these: Device=c:\scsi\aspi4dos.sys /D (This line loads the aspi driver) Device=C:\SCSI\CUNI_ASP.SYS /E /ID:4 /N:1 /XA /D:MSCD001 (This is the line that loads the "Photo CD driver" This one is from Corel SCSI. If you are using the Adaptec one it does not read Photo CDs and you will need a new driver. You also do need the "/XA" to read photo CDs make sure it is there.) You also need a line like this in your Autoexec.bat file: C:\scsi\MSCDEX.EXE /V /M:12 /E /D:MSCD001 It should then work. When you put a normal (data) CD in the drive can you do a catalog with Windows "File Manager"? Hope this helps, Jeff….

Thanks Jeff, but according to the Kodak.txt file I downloaded from this forum, they list the Adaptec SCSI drive and ASPI manager software (included with Adaptec "kits") as supported software with a Sony drive so I assume it should work with my Texel. I will give Adaptec, Texel, and Kodak a call Monday morning. Thanks again for the help. Brian

Brian, You can call the Kodak Information Center (KIC) for technical assistance. Call 800-242-2424, ext. 53. Or, you can leave a message for Joel White in the technical service area. His CIS ID is 71333,727. Give Joel your full system configuration so he can help you track down the problem. Regards … Paul
