If you have an OS/2 driver for the CD loaded, then OS/2 will still
control the CD-ROM hardware so the DOS drivers will not be able to. It
would probably work if you disabled the OS/2 driver and loaded the DOS
one from the boot disk, but that's a bit drastic (and has complications if 
you have other devices hanging off the same interface, like hard disks).
