Windows 95
Windows 95 comes with a generic ATAPI CD-ROM device driver that
works with your computer's CD-ROM. You do not need to install a
new device driver for your CD-ROM. You can enable the generic
device driver by following the instructions below.
Note
If you upgraded to Windows 95 from DOS or Windows 3.x, you
must disable the original DOS/Windows CD-ROM device driver
in order to allow the generic Windows 95 device driver to work
effectively.
To enable the Windows 95 generic ATAPI CD-ROM device driver,
follow these instructions:
1. Go to the MS-DOS command prompt.
2. Open the CONFIG.SYS file.
3. Find the following line:
DEVICE=C:\xxxxxx\IBMTPCD.SYS /D:TPCDðð1.....
where
xxxxxx is the subdirectory where you have installed the
CD-ROM device driver. If you cannot find the line, quit the file
and go to step 5.
4. Comment out the line, changing it as follows:
REM DEVICE=C:\xxxxxx\IBMTPCD.SYS /D:TPCDðð1.......
If the line is already commented out, quit the file and go to the
next step.
5. Open the AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
6. Find the following line:
C:\xxxxxx\MSCDEX.EXE /D:TPCDðð1.....
where
xxxxxx is the subdirectory where you have installed the
CD-ROM device driver. If you cannot find the line, quit the file
and go to step 8.
7. Comment out the line, changing it as follows:
REM C:\xxxxxx\MSCDEX.EXE /D:TPCDðð1......
If the line is already commented out, quit the file and go to the
next step.
8. Exit the MS-DOS command prompt; then restart your system.
You have now completed the modifications required for the CD-ROM
device driver.
