And certainly your best option if you didn't preserve your CD-Rom driver files or old autoexec or config files that reference your CD-Rom language to enable the drivers. Older Win95 didn't do that for you when making Start Up boot disks, as Win98 now will.

You can get around that next time by manually adding a copy of mscdex. But if you want the long way, and desire to use the drivers associated with your CD instead of universal drivers, here's what to look for; or consider it FYI, for the next time If you had the foresight to print any autoexec. The above assumes I had a folder on the c drive named "cdrom", and put the driver file mtmide Then you can obtain the same drivers from the web, where Mitsumi and others may have updated versions.

If you wind up downloading an "installation" disc program, it should do the work for you. Mscdex is now on your C: drive. This will give you a listing of every file and folder directory on the drive.

So something that pretends to be himem. Here's an extract of the drivers table from 6. Note that msdos emulates mscdex 2. AlphaBeta, stop brainwashing me immediately! For me, it works fine on 6. Come for the solution, stay for everything else.

Welcome to our community! Consider this situation A computer with formatted HDD. I have a dos driver for a cd drive on a floppy. Files on floppy: mscdex. Or do I need some more files? Please post clear cut instructions because I am a total amateur at computers.
