Problem: Windows 95 OSR2 won't recognise my atapi cdrom or atapi tape
drive.  I am using the Microsoft drivers.



Possible Solution:  Download remideup.exe from Microsoft.

This patch will update the Windows driver ESDI_506.pdr to a newer version.

Problem:  I installed remideup.exe, but my cdrom still won't show up.
Problem:  I have Windows 98 and am using the Microsoft drivers.  My atapi
cdrom isn't recognised.

Possible Solution #1:  Install the dos driver for your cdrom drive.  Remove
any references to mscdex in your autoexec.bat file.  In some cases, (as was
mine) this causes Windows to detect your cdrom drive and to properly use
the Windows ,its own, 32bit protected mode driver.

Possible Solution #2:  Set your cdrom as a slave drive, instead of the master.

Possible Solution #3:  Install the dos drivers, and add make shure that
there is a reference to mscdex in your autoexec.bat file.  This will allow
you to use your cdrom in MSDOS Compatability Mode, until a better solution
can be found.

Possible Solution #4:  Install the Via Busmaster Drivers, and hope your
cdrom shows up.  Not my idea of a solution.  Unfortunately it may be the
only solution for some people.
