Help! I have a DAK/Sony (external) CDROM. It worked fine in my 386SX, but
about 6 months ago I decided to move it over to the 286 in the next room.
I've tried and tried, but I cannot get the darn thing to recognize that
there is a disk in the player. All the software appears to be correctly
installed, and it sequences perfectly except that I get a message to open
the carrier and slip in the disk! Calling DAK for help is like calling my
mother… they are nice, but they don't seem to have the technical
horsepower to solve the problem. Incidentally, the unit is out of the DAK
warranty. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

AS YOU PROBABLY KNOW THE DAK CDROMS USE S AS THEIR DISK LETTER. POSSIBLY
YOU HAVE NOT MADE LASTDRIVE HIGHER THAN S IN WHICH CASE THE
CD DISK WON'T BE FOUND. TO SET THE LASTDRIVE LETTER JUST ENTER IN YOUR
CONFIG FILE LASTDRIVE = T. HOPE THIS HELPS.
