Re: CD-ROM/FLOPPY DRIVE Hot Swapping Problem



I just removed the IBMTPCD.SYS and MSCDEX.EXE from my config files.  This
was actually recommended by the 755_tips file.  Hot swapping still works
and Win95 now recognizes my 755CD drive as a TEAC40E.  I don't have the
v7320 stuff even on my hard drive, somebody deleted that before, but I do
have DEVICE=C:\DOS\POWER.EXE The MWD05430 is only needed for dos sessions
(as in when you reboot into it, not a dos window).
