'the following file is missing or corrupted:C:\CDROM\Oakcdrom.sys. There is an error in your config sys file on line 19. Device driver not found 'IDECDOOO' No valid cdrom device'. The cd rom is still working, and under the device manager, it says there is no problems, and the device is working properly. HELP.	Guest (0)

Goto the Config.sys file, and place a ';' at the start of the line refering to the file, it will probably start with DEVICE=. The ; will disable the line with out removing it incase you restore the file.	Guest (0)
