Hello, I have the following problem and would appreicate any help: I recently bought a NEC MultiSpin 3Xp plus external CDROM and an Adaptec SlimScsi PCMCIA card. I am having a tp755cx running Warp (3.0) and Windows 3.11 (the configuration came preload). For the last week I tried to install the software drivers without any success. Frist I tried to install the drivers under Windows. At the end, it created an Adpatec program group but when I tried to use the CDROM player, it said the drivers are not there. The way I installed the software was to invoke Windows under Warp and run the installation there. I did not reboot to DOS and run Windows first. I am not sure if this is the right way. I did not play around with that very much since my interest was to get the CDROM running under OS/2 first. So I went to the "Selective Install" under Warp to install the driver stuffs for this NEC CDROM. I checked config.sys afterward and it looked like the installation had made the right changes. The section which I think is right looks like this: REM following 5 lines were for SCSI/CDROM support used during install - begin DEVICE=C:\OS2\BOOT\OS2CDROM.DMD /Q IFS=C:\OS2\BOOT\CDFS.IFS /Q DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VCDROM.SYS BASEDEV=OS2SCSI.DMD BASEDEV=AHA152X.ADD REM === SCSI/CDROM support used during install - end REM === ThinkPad PC Card Director - begin === BASEDEV=PCMCIA.SYS /P BASEDEV=IBM2SS01.SYS /D DEVICE=C:\THINKPAD\VPCMCIA.SYS DEVICE=C:\MWAVEOS2\BIN\mwbd0400.sys BUS=1150000 DEVICE=C:\OS2\BOOT\COM.SYS (2,2F8,3) DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VCOM.SYS DEVICE=C:\THINKPAD\AUTODRV2.SYS C:\THINKPAD\AUTODRV2.INI REM Client driver should be loaded here prior to $ICPMOS2.SYS DEVICE=C:\THINKPAD\$ICPMOS2.SYS REM === ThinkPad PC Card Director - end === However, after I rebooted the machine, the machine could not find the CDROM. I tried to register the CDROM player within the "Card Director", but when I launched the application, nothing happened. I tried to open the CDROM player and it said the CDROM is not available. Next, I looked for newer drivers in Adpatec BBS, found one (AHX152X.ADD), replaced it with the old one and I could not even boot my machine. It complained about some internal error with the driver PCMCIA$. I am basically stuck at this point. Please help! Thanks in advance. -William Ng
