MS-DOS/Windows 3.1x Driver Installation
The D or d values are used to Disable the time out mechanism. If the time out mechanism is
disabled then faulty hardware can lock up the system.
Examples: /T4
/Td
/TD
/T1
/X /x This option is used to exclude particular CD-ROM drives. Excluded CDROM
drives are identified by specifying the host adapter, target id and lun. These values are
spereated by a colon. Groups of CDROM drives (or wild cards) can also be identified.
Below are examples of the different ways CDROM drives can be excluded:
/X0:1:2 This will exclude the drive on Host Adapter 0, with target ID 1
and lun 2.
/X0:2 This will exclude the drive on Host Adapter 0, with target ID 2
and ANY lun
/X0 This will exclude ALL drives on Host Adapter 0.
SAMPLE CONFIG.SYS AND AUTOEXEC.BAT FILES
These samples assume that the user has loaded the Initio drivers in the following
directory: c:\iniaspi.
Config.sys:
DEVICEHIGH=c:\iniaspi\aspi910u
DEVICEHIGH=c:\iniaspi\inicd.sys /D:INICD001
Explanation:
The first line loads the ASPI manager and the second line loads the CDROM driver
specifying the device name INICD001.
Autoexec.bat:
Mscdex /D:INICD001
Explanation:
This line will load the Microsoft supplied mscdex.exe file instructing it to attach to the
CD-ROM device driver INICD001.
