| 13199 | 2001-05-26 07:23:00 | Hi I have a Pentium 75Mhz and 8 Ram pc which has just got windows 95 taken off. But now that we start it up again, it says to type in the command... followed by C:\ but I need to be able to read the cdrom drive which is in d. What do I type to change it? Thanks. |

If this does not work then it probably means that your CDrom driver is no longer installed and you will need to reinstall it. | Guest (0) | ||
| 13201 | 2001-05-26 08:30:00 | To change drives simply type the drive letter followed by a semi colon, for example, D: If you want to change directories within a drive type CD (for change directory) followed by the directory name, for example CD WIN98. If you have uninstalled windows then you may need to install CD-Rom drivers before you can access the CD drive. Check out the disk that came with your CD-Rom. |
