The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Windows versions 3.0, 3.0a, 3.1, 3.11 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY
=======

Microsoft Windows supports CD-ROM drives. The following explains how to
configure a CD-ROM drive for operation with Windows.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Steps to Configure a CD-ROM Drive for Windows 3.0, 3.0a
-------------------------------------------------------

1. Edit the SYSTEM.INI file with a text editor such as Notepad.

2. Locate the [386enh] section and add the following:

   device=LANMAN10.386

3. Use the Windows EXPAND.EXE utility to expand the file LANMAN10.386 from the
   Windows disks into the Windows SYSTEM subdirectory.

4. Restart Windows.

Steps to Configure a CD-ROM Drive for Windows 3.1
-------------------------------------------------

During Setup, if MSCDEX is loaded, then Windows 3.1 automatically installs
LANMAN10.386. If you are using a version of MSCDEX greater than version 2.1,
then you should remove the line

   device=LANMAN10.386

from your SYSTEM.INI's [386enh] section.

General Information About Running a CD-ROM with Windows
-------------------------------------------------------

MSCDEX.EXE, the terminate-and-stay-resident (TSR) program that implements the
Microsoft CD-ROM Extensions for MS-DOS, provides access to CD-ROM drives.
MSCDEX.EXE appears to MS-DOS to be a network redirecter; it uses the same
interface to MS-DOS as Microsoft LAN Manager.

LANMAN10.386 causes calls from MS-DOS to a redirecter (including LAN Manager or
MSCDEX.EXE) to be inside an enhanced-mode-critical section. This is required for
these products to work correctly with Windows running in enhanced mode.

Note that the flowchart on page 21 of the version 3.1 "Microsoft Windows Resource
Kit" guide incorrectly uses the term LANMAN10.DOS where LANMAN10.386 is
intended.
