An update…
I had the MSCDEX line before the path statement so it wasn't being read.
Unfortunately, when I included the complete path, I get the following after the
cuni_asp line (which is the last line) in CONFIG.SYS is read: ——
CorelDRIVER! Universal CD-ROM Device Driver Version 1.10b5 Copyright (C) Corel
Systems Corporation 1987-1992
Using ASPI SCSI host adapter interface
Subunit Code: 00 SCSI unit id: 1 LUN: 0 Invalid AUTOEXEC file name on
command line NDOS EMS swapping initialized (112K)
DOS version 6.0 NDOS, Norton Utilities (etc.)
c:\dos\MSCDEX /V /M:10 /E /D:MSCD001
—–
and at this point the computer goes off into never-neverland and I have to
reboot. There is no sign of hard drive activity. The MSCDEX line is the first
line of my AUTOEXEC.BAT file. I also tried this with the ASPI461.SYS file I
just got off the Always BBS with the same horrible results.

Elizabeth,
My recommendation is still to upgrade, but also try removing any /E on the
driver and MSCDEX lines.
I hope this helps.

Laszlo:
I even tried the MSCDEX line with just the device ID and it still locked up.
I'm going to get the update and I also have to get a Mac cable (that's what the
IN-2000 requires, and the cables I used this weekend were borrowed). However,
I'm within striking distance of having a working CD ROM drive within a week or
so, for the first time in several months.
I'll decide about going to 2.0 later.
I really appreciate you and Jack jumping in on this one. Great support!

Liz,
If you read the posted apology you will understand the tardiness of my
response.
Jack has definately helped us out here! Maybe he'll put down the pen and pick
up a headset <grin>.
Just kiddin' Jack….where would us SCI-FI readers be….
