I have an old 486 pc that used to run Windows 3.1 / DOS 6.22 and a Panasonic / Matsushita CR-563 2x CD-Rom drive when I bought it. It used to work fine. Then I Installed Windows 95, which deleted Windows 3.1. Still things were fine. Then I used Powerquest Partition Magic 8.0 to create another primary partition, and then installed first DOS 6.22 & then Windows 3.1 on this partition. All is fine, I can boot whichever operating system I want, and things are great except, and hereÂ’s the problem:
DOS 6.22 / Windows 3.1 cannot detect my CD-ROM drive, but it still works fine in Windows 95. I tried using boot floppies with generic CD-ROM drivers, which seem to install, but when they are loading in DOS they end up in a message that says no drive detected or something. How can I get DOS to recognise the CD-ROM drive as it used to work fine?
