Hi Alain,
most likely UIDE disturbs the BIOS boot drive emulation
I have no idea if UIDE can work around this.
you can work around this by
create a virtual disk
copy A: to virtual disk (including autoexec.bat)
so that A: is no longer needed
execute autoexec.bat from virtual disk
only then
DEVLOAD a:\dos\uide.sys /D:CDROM
