dvd drive recognised as a removeable disk?!
I'm trying to use a new unbranded dvd drive in a 400Mhz dell base unit.
Win98 has recognised it as being there, but it thinks that its a removeable disk drive, occasionally it thinks its a harddrive, and sometimes it just wont recognise it at all. According to the device manager, the device type is 'yyyyyyyyyyyy'. Any ideas? Anyone? Thanks, Alex

Usually better to put the unkndvddrv.sys in config.sys and autoexec.bat.
