Warp/SB16/Sony 33A

[Michael Simpson]

I am having problems with the CD install with this combination. I get the red
screen CD Rom not found. You would think that it would be a no brainer. I
have down loaded the new drivers from Watson to no avail. I've tried the
/P:0220. Someone else suggested that the logical unit of the CD was no 0. I
found no jumpers on the unit and Dos reports it is unit 0. I have checked to
determine if there are conflicting interupts. Nortons reports the SB owning
interupt 5. Someone on Compuserve reports that IBM has 150 unresolved SB/CD
reports. The tech support person told this person to purchase a new sound
card. This would be totally unsat. If you have got this to work, please post
the lines of your config.sys in the correct order for doing the install.

Thanks,

There is a set of warptips on software.watson.ibm.com that has some
common problems listed and work arounds. That may help to determine
the cause of your installation problem.

After many tries I put the interface card of the Sony CD rom
besides the SB16 card. No more red screens
on unrecognized CD roms. Ok, it costs a whole slot,
but now everything works fine.
I bought the SB16 card specially for this purpose, so a am
disappointed that the SB people did such a bad design of their
so-called multi-cd card. Multi bla-bla would be a better name :-(

It may just be a typo in your message, but the correct setting with an
SB16 MCD card is

BASEDEV=SONY31A.ADD /A:0 /P:0230

This worked for me. The Warp install program only put

BASEDEV=SONY31A.ADD

I'm assuming you have the CD drive data cable connected to the SB16
card. If so you need to set a jumper on the SB16 card to SONY. If you
have the CD drive connected toa separate controller card, not the SB16,
you need to set the /P:xxxx to the correct address for that card.

I don't think it matters where in the CONFIG.SYS file the driver is
mounted.
