ULTRAPLEX 40X OPERATION MANUAL
To correct this problem, you must edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT file using a text
editor or word processor. Your AUTOEXEC.BAT file will probably contain a
line that may look something like this:
C:\TSCSI\MSCDEX.EXE /D:TSLCD /M:10
In this example, C:\TSCI is the path to MSCDEX.EXE. The path name will vary
depending on the type of SCSI device driver software you use. The D:TSLCD
refers to the device.
Change only the path of this line in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file so that it finds
the updated MSCDEX.EXE file in your DOS directory. This line should be
edited to read:
C:\DOS\MSCDEX.EXE /D:PLEX0001 /M:10
in DOS. Save the AUTOEXEC.BAT file and reboot your computer.
In Windows 3.1 the AUTOEXEC.BAT file would read:
C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\MSCDEX.EXE/D:PLEX0001/M:10
and the CONFIG.SYS file would look something like this:
DEVICE=C:\SCSI\ASPI8DOS.SYS
(ASPI Manager for AHA2940 controller)
DEVICE=C:\SCSI\ASPICD.SYS /D:DEVICE_NAME
(ASPI Manager CD-ROM driver)
or
When using the Plextor driver (PLEXTOR.SYS) instead of ASPICD.SYS
DEVICE=C:\PROGRA~1\PLEXTOR\PLEXTOR.SYS /D:DEVICE_NAME
(ASPI Manager CD-ROM driver)
