80 PCA-6176 User’s Manual
My CD-ROM drive does not work properly under Windows
95.
Some older models of SCSI CD-ROM drives are not compatible with
the embedded Windows 95 CD-ROM driver. You can add support for
the CD-ROM drive by doing the following:
1. Click the Start button and select Restart the Computer in MS-DOS
mode.
2. When the DOS prompt appears, follow the Quick Start instructions
for DOS.
3. When you have finished running Adaptec EZ-SCSI for DOS, find
the file named cdtsd.vxd in the windows\system\iosubsys directory
and rename it cdtsd.sav.
My CD-ROM drive shows up as more than one icon under
My Computer.
This means that the mapping between mscdex, which runs in real
mode, and the Windows95 CD-ROM driver does not match. You can
correct this in one of two ways:
- Comment out the line that loads mscdex.exe in the autoexec.bat
file.
- Change the /L switch on the line that loads mscdex.exe in the
autoexec.bat file so that it assigns the CD-ROM drive the next
highest logical drive letter after the hard disk drives.

Note: The Windows 95 / Windows NT troubleshooting

ASPI managers under Windows 95 or Windows NT.
