You want to read the help of SHSUCDX and you want to load a generic IDE / SATA CD/DVD driver such as UDVD2 before that: > http://mercurycoding.com/downloads.html#DOS > http://adoxa.altervista.org/shsucdx/index.html It is the same idea as with the old "drive ships with some IDE / ATAPI driver and you load MSCDEX after that", just more modern :-) You may have to change your BIOS settings from AHCI to SATA if UDVD2 does not detect your DVD drive. Note that only ISO9660 filesystems are supported by normal SHSUCDX and MSCDEX versions. If your DVD are formatted in UDF, you want to load something specialized for UDF instead but ISO 9660 is still widespread for CD and DVD data :-) Regards, Eric > Sent from: http://freedos.10956.n7.nabble.com/FreeDOS-User-f3.html _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
