Thank you Neil -- what make and model is your DVD-burner?

2687-D7U. I don't know if that's a 'p' model, but it has a 1400 x 1050 display
and an IBM multi-burner.
      

It's P/N: 39T2507

  

Neil, open up RSJ's CD Writer Control and go to the System tab. You should have the hardware details listed there. Mine shows:

MATSHITA "DVD-RAM UJ-842 " RB01 "MATSHITADVD-RAM UJ-842 " N/A cdatapi disabled RAW-3 MATSHITADVD-RAM_UJ-842__R

Sometimes the part number can be less than useful, as IBM (now Lenovo) substitutes different manufacturer drives/models for the same OEM number.

BTW, if your T43 were a T43p, the "p" would be appended to the model number visible on the panel under the LCD. There are subtle differences between the 43 and the 43p (a 1.6GHz CPU was available in the 43, but the slowest CPU in the 43p was a 1.86). Probably the most striking difference was that *all* 43p's supposedly came with ATI FireGL 3200 128MB video, whereas the 43'a came with either an Intel 915GM northbridge with an Intel 900 graphics chip (shared system RAM) or a 915PM northbridge and an ATI MobilityRadeon X300 chip (64MB onboard RAM), and the 43p offered an available 1600x1200 LCD. There were a few other minor differences, too (available 100GB HDD in the 43p, for example).

Don't the p models also have bluetooth?  I was told that besides the high resolution display that was the main difference with my T42p versus a T42, but I have never used it so I have no idea if it works.

I'm not sure if BT was exclusive to the p model, Mark. I recently set up an X61s (blowing Vista away in favor of XP - who would've ever though I would be doing anything "in favor of" XP?) and was able to successfully use the BT in it to talk to my Sony Ericsson P990i smart phone, transferring files (works via FTP; when you open an image file on the phone, it caches it down to the computer first), viewing media, and even creating and deleting directories on the internal drive as well as the memory stick. It was somewhat useful, in fact, and performed better than via IR.

Re: your query concerning burning, I did a quick install last night on my nephew's eCS 1.2 workstation of RSJ 6.01 (Sony CD-RW). After a reboot, it worked exactly as expected. I suspect your trouble may either lie in the CONFIG.SYS entries about which it seems to be complaining or possibly an incompatible firmware rev (incompatible version 6 of RSJ). Perhaps you're loading the RSJSCSI driver as well as Dani? Check your entries. Also, Al makes a very good point about LOCKCDR, which can also create some issues when it conflicts with Dani.

Cheers.

Here if I REM LOCKCDR.FLT or RSJSCSI.SYS it no longer finds the burner. This is on eCS 2.0 RC1.  Perhaps it is the sorting of Config.sys during
the  install, but all this works fine with 5.06.  Can you post all the
sequence  of config.sys lines that effect RSJ?  Al just posted most but
not the  DANIATAPI.FLT line.  Here I have:

DEVICE=H:\PROGRAMS\RSJCD\RSJSCSI.SYS /S
IFS=H:\PROGRAMS\RSJCD\CDWFS.IFS

BASEDEV=OS2ASPI.DMD /ALL
DEVICE=H:\OS2\BOOT\ASPINKK.SYS /v  <- This is a replacement for ASPIROUT
that is included with DVDDAO
BASEDEV=DaniATAPI.FLT /RSJ
BASEDEV=LOCKCDR.FLT -v

RUN=H:\PROGRAMS\RSJCD\CDWFSD.EXE -p "F:/temp" -c200000 -b20480 -t2 -i3
-s0

BASEDEV=DaniATAPI.FLT /RSJ
BASEDEV=LOCKCDR.FLT -v

These are fighting with each other, BASEDEV=LOCKCDR.FLT -v is not needed
when you have BASEDEV=DaniATAPI.FLT /RSJ

I have BASEDEV=DaniATAPI.FLT /RSJ in my config.sys, but not with RSJ
lines.  If RSJ finds BASEDEV=DaniATAPI.FLT /RSJ   RSJ will not install
BASEDEV=LOCKCDR.FLT -v.

With BASEDEV=LOCKCDR.FLT -v all drive letters are changed here System becomes under RSJ
S              Z
T             Y
U             S

With out BASEDEV=LOCKCDR.FLT -v S,T, & U remain

Do this:
1- I Put a CD with data on it in CD drive T:\
2- Attach  as T:\ as Z:
3- Read CD as T:\
4- Read CD as Z:\
