Driver displays information about its installation. /c Turns on displaying of drive configuration at boot time. /m: Data transfer mode: p = polled I/O, d = DMA, which requires the /t:x parameter. /t: Specifies the DMA channel to use if DMA transfer mode is selected. /k Enables a sector caching mechanism to improve the performance. The default is off. /n /2 specifies the double speed mode. /1 specifies the single speed mode. The default is the double speed mode. lastdrive=z Last valid drive letter. DOS defaults to 'e'.

If the program starts under DOS/V J mode, it automatically switches the screen mode to English from DOS/V J mode, and restores it before exiting. 2. Control file (CDPLAY.CTL) is not necessarily required. When the file does not exist, the program automatically scans the valid CD-ROM drive. 3. The program can be terminated by Esc key at any time. ****************************************************************************** NOTES for older version of MSCDEX. There are old version of MSCDEX provided under each sub directory which sub directory name represents each version level. The reason in providing these old version is to be used where user faces combination problem which may be solved using an old version of MSCDEX, though we are sure that the latest version of MSCDEX serves its purpose under any environment. ******************************************************************************
