Driver for CDROM is in "config.sys".  
Could be "oakcdrom.sys".
Also need "mscdex.exe" in autoexec.bat.

No driver is needed for Floppy Disk Drive (FDD).

Thanks.  I put these commands in and it ask me to if I want to create one.  so I escape.  I am going to be reloading Dos on this server and then Netware.  I want to find out what CDRom Driver is before I wipe it out.

Didn't know anyone still used DOS and Netware for a server.  I did...around 1992...on PC's with I486-66 CPU's, top of the line, at the time.
