pr-man 1 Posted September 28, 2000 Ok I installed win95B on the laptop and all went fine (installed it from cdrom, using win98 boot disk to start with cdrom support) now after all was install and desktop came up it started trying to install stuff for the pc card support and infared sensor in the back for wireless printing. It then could not find the drivers because it did not see the laptops cd-rom anymore. I looked in device manager and there was a exclamation point on the IDE controller. The only way I could get the cdrom to be recognized was to load up the oakcdrom.sys driver from the win98 boot disk via the autoexec and config.sys. Thus giving me the cdrom but causing both the HD and cdrom to run in dreaded msdos compatibility mode. Any ideas guys? Both win98 and win95B will not recognize the drive but win98SE detects it with no problems. I just want to see if I can get win95B to work before going back to win98SE. Thx PS the cdrom is a Toshiba XM-1602B 20x cdrom ------------------ Celeron 300a@464 on a Abit BH6 Rev 1.01, 192 Pc100, Matrox G400 32 SH, SBlive Value, Supra Express 56i ISA, all running on Win2k pro with other odds and ends Share this post Link to post
