Readme.txt Driver File Contents (YamahaCDROM.zip)

DOS boot disk.


This works on  my IDE CDROMS, SCSI CDROMS, and SCSI CDRW's.

I have the AIC 789x family Adapetc SCSI controller (that includes AHA-2940U2/ AHA-2940U2W) that came on my ASUS P2B-S Motherboard.

My CDROMS are a Toshiba IDE XM-6302B, Toshiba IDE XM-6620B, Toshiba SCSI XM-6201TA, and a SCSI rewitable Yamaha CRW6416S.

This should work on most Adapetc controllers and Toshiba & Yamaha IDE & SCSI CDROMS.

There is a bonus folder with several other drivers for syquest drives, other SCSI controllers, LS 120 drives, Zip drives, etc.

I have also included my auto execute.exe and config.sys.

Just transfer the files to a formated disk with your system files on it (a choice given when formatting).


This is my Autoexec.bat file:

mscdex.EXE /D:cdrom001 /D:toscd001 /M:12

The /D:cdrom001 is for the Toshiba IDE's
The /D:toscd001 is for the Toshiba SCSI and Yamaha SCSI rewritable
/M:12 is the buffers (most popular number)

if you only have one CDROM the line would be like this:

   mscdex.exe /D:cdrom001 /M:12   (for the IDE) or
   mscdex.exe /D:toscd001 /M:12    (for the SCSI)


This is my Config.sys file:

LASTDRIVE=Z

device=\cdromdrv.sys /d:cdrom001 
device=\aspi8u2.sys /d:TOSCD001
device=\aspicd.sys /d:TOSCD001


The first line is for the IDE CDROMS
The second line is for the SCSI CDROMS
The third line is for the SCSI rewritable (that is on a second SCSI connection)


(The device name toscd001 works on the SCSI Yamaha and Toshiba CDROM drives but the IDE Toshiba CDROM uses cdrom001.)

How To Update Drivers Manually

After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.

• Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).

• If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.

• Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.

• Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.

• Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.

• From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.

• Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.

Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
