Note:

If your AUTOEXEC.BAT file loads a menu program such as
DOSSHELL or Windows, you have to add the above line to start
your menu program. Otherwise, MSCDEX will not have a chance
to load before your menu program begins.

The example above shows the default setting. The /D: switch indicates

the device name. It MUST be the same name as you specified by the
/D: switch of EXPCDI.EXE in your CONFIG.SYS file. The /M: switch
indicates how much memory to allocate for caching information on the
CD-ROM. The default /M:4 caches 8KB.

For more information about the switches of MSCDEX, please type “help
MSCDEX
” at the DOS prompt.

Now, reboot your computer to activate the CD-ROM drive.
