IBM PC365 - PD/CD ROM fails in Windows 3.1
Applicable to: World-Wide
Problem :
The PD/CD ROM drive in the IBM PC 365 Series 6589 system may fail to function in a Windows 3.1 environment. The drive will not be recognized by Windows 3.1.
Problem Isolation Aids :
The PD/CD ROM drive is configured as the MASTER drive on the PRIMARY IDE port.
Fix :
Configure the PD/CD ROM drive on the SECONDARY IDE port as MASTER. This is the configuration used by IBM Manufacturing when installing the PD/CD ROM drive in a PC 365 system.
If the user configuration requires that the PD/CD ROM drive attach to the PRIMARY connector as MASTER, perform the following changes to the Windows SYSTEM.INI file:
386Enh
------
virtualHDIRQ=off (change from ON to OFF)
32BitDiskAccess=off (Add this entry if not present and
ensure that the setting is OFF)
