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:\

Regards Al
