CD install on 4000

[frl9lk]

I swapped out the flaky HD on my 4000. DOS 3.1.
But I can't reinstall the CD using ASIM cd 3.1. Even tried a different CD unit. Any ideas?

I set the jumpers on the new drive (Quantum Fireball SE) to master, the jumper on the CD ROM to slave (older LG) I've tried it as a SCSI (scsi.device with an open ID) and as an ATAPI (asim_ide.device at 0). In either case, with both the original CD ROM and the "new" one I get an alert window on startup -- Window header: ASIMCDFM configuration... and in the window: "unable to open CD0:"

Please tell me on any further details that would be helpful. (The same install procedure worked fine on my 2000.)

Thanks all. But I am frustrated. IFEfix97 apparently needs an updated Installer("can't find the installer tool"). The updated Installer apparently needs an updated lharc (LHArchie), which in turn needs an updated installer (InstallerNG). I'm chasing my own tail.

Also -- I do have Asim 3.10 -- I just read the v number as decimal.

I have rechecked the jumpers. The HD is both Master/Master w Slave and the CD drive is Slave.

THANK YOU for your help. I believe the problem was a bad copy of asimcdfs -- though it's a legit disk. The Scsi Inquire just hangs. Ignoring it worked for my 2000 -- I had to use IDEfix for the 4000. Learned a bunch. Thanks again.

One last question... How do I register IFEfix97? The email address seems to be dead, and the hyper-intrusive pop-ups are a bit much.
