Frequently Asked Questions
I'm receiving many requests of help, more than I can handle.
Please read the following FAQ carefully. This is all the help I can give you.
Q1. I need a Win95 [or Win98, WinNT, Win2000, WinME] driver for my CD-ROM drive model Xxxxxx manufactured by Yyyyyy, but I haven't found it on the manufacturer's web site. Can you help me?
Q2. I need a DOS driver for my CD-ROM drive model Xxxxxx manufactured by Yyyyyy, but I haven't found it on the manufacturer's web site. Can you help me? A2. Many manufacturers offer a single driver for all ATAPI drives they build. If this is not your case, try the driver for another ATAPI model of the same manufacturer: they often works. If your drive is not ATAPI you are out of luck. Q3. I need a DOS driver for my CD-ROM drive model Xxxxxx manufactured by Yyyyyy, but the manufacturer is not listed in your page. Can you help me? A3. It could be a new manufacturer or it hasn't a web site. Try to locate it with a good search engine like Google. If you find it, let me know its URL so that I can add it to my page; if you don't find it, try a generic ATAPI driver like this one by Acer (it supports up to 8 drives and requires only 5 kB of RAM, so you could decide to use it in any case). If your drive is not ATAPI you are out of luck. Q4. What is ATAPI? A4. It's a standard for CD-ROM drives. All common IDE (i.e. non-SCSI) drives are ATAPI compliant (except some very old model running at 1x or 2x). Q5. I have a SCSI CD-ROM drive. Can you give me a driver for it? A5. All the CD-ROM related software I have is listed here. However, you need a driver for the SCSI interface, not for the drive. Visit the site of the SCSI card manufacturer. Q6. I have a CD recorder. I can read from it but I cannot write to it. Need I a driver? A6. No, you need a burning software that supports your drive. The most famous are Easy CD Creator and Nero. Q7. How can I know the manufacturer of my CD-ROM drive? A7. There are 4 ways:
A8. All the CD-ROM related software I have is listed here. However note that the manufacturer reported on the case of the PC is often different from the CD-ROM drive's one. Try to visit the web site of the PC manufacturer or refer to the other questions above (especially to Q7, Q1 and Q3). Q9. I have a CD-ROM drive with no brand name on it. Can you help me to locate a driver for it? A9. To determine the manufacturer of your drive refer to Q7, then refer to the other questions above to locate the driver. However, if you are searching for a Win9x/NT/2000/Me driver, read Q1; if you are searching for a DOS driver and you didn't success in determine the manufacturer, try this generic ATAPI driver by Acer. Q10. What is the firmware? A10. It's a special driver installed in the device's own memory (not in the hard disk). All drives have a firmware and it works in conjunction with the 'normal' driver. CD recorders let you upgrade their firmware; you should upgrade it only if you are experiencing some problem and only after having carefully read the instructions provided by the manufacturer. While many generic ATAPI drivers are available, no generic firmware exists, so be sure to pick up the right firmware for your model. |
