- TITLE: 950116 OS/2 WARP NOT RECOGNIZING SONY 31A CDROM WHICH IS
- ATTACHED TO A CARDINAL DSP16 (SOUNDBLASTER COMPATIBLE)
-
- DESCRIPTION OF SYMPTOMS:
- OS/2 WARP does not recognize the SONY 31A which is connected to the
- Cardinal DSP16 card. Installation asks for the CD but keeps looping
- and ask for the CD again and again.
-
- SUMMARY OF RESOLUTION:
- User is using downloaded driver (SONY31A.ADD) and followed the parameter
- from page 329 example 4 of the user's guide. As default, the sound
- port address is 220h and IRQ 5. The CDROM is set for port address 300
- and IRQ 12.
- User should use the driver that came with OS/2 WARP and added the
- following to the SONY31A.ADD statement:
- SONY31A.ADD /A:0 /AT:05 /P:0300 /I:12 /V
- where the port address and irq above should be for the cdrom, NOT
- the soundcard. The /P: is the address of the cdrom and the /I: is the
- IRQ of the CDROM drive. (the /v only showed us if the cdrom was
- recognized when the driver loaded or not).
-
- Note: the above problem is happen if user put the wrong port address
- and irq for the cdrom.
