Subway and CD-ROMs
« on: July 17, 2011, 09:56:57 PM »
So I was told that since I have a subway, I can just plug in a CD-ROM drive and it would work....

Well it does detect, but it does not work. An icon for the CD-ROM does not show up on the desktop.

So my next question is, what software do I need to make the CD-ROM show up so I can browse it's contents?

I would prefer something free and easy, but if I have to pay for it to have quality, easy to use software, then point me to that.

Thank you!


EDIT: I also want the ability to play Audio CD's with this as well, not to mention have the ability to burn Cd's if possible.

If you bought the Subway board it should have came with AllegroCDFS which I use with mine, it's as simple as placing it in the L: Drawer and making a DOSdriver text file for it... :)


DOSDriver text file?

Alright, got the latest version of ASIM cdfs, but don't see support in the installer for Subway.

What next?

AsimCDFS did the trick just like Magnetic said, though I was not able to make complete sense of the installer till Franko posted his bits of info.

Thanks all!!
