I know this is not really an OS/2 problem but I need help.

I need to install PC DOS 7 on an old P100 computer but I have not been able to find the device driver
for the Maxtor 7850 AV hard drive this computer has. Can someone point me in the right direction for
the hard drive driver. I can find only text files on the Maxtor site for the 7850 drive.

On the Matshita site I found 58x_dos.zip for the Matshita CR-581 CD-ROM drive. That zip file expands
to 5 files that include CR_ATAPI.SYS which the readme says is the driver. If I read the DOS 7
directions correctly, I need to place "MSCDEX CR_ATAPI.SYS" in the autoexec.bat file to load the
CD-ROM driver. Will someone confirm that, please.

Sheridan
