CD rom missing in DOS
« on: August 20, 2004, 01:07:09 PM »
i did a format on two 133 mhz comp's i am working on. somehow i lost the cd rom drivers, not being real good at dos i would normally just reload 5.0 and then 6.22 but my disk are corrupt now for being stored badly and rarely ever getting used. working from a win 98 start up disk, i have a third 133 running win 98 , is it possible to copy the the lines from the autoexe.bat and the config sys and install the CD rom driver and the MSCDEX file ( i downloaded it to a floppy) geese did any of that make sense ? lol
