yes i get the 'invalid drive spec' error just by typing e: by itself. no i can't extract from dos prompt within windows. tried and got 'no file found' when i entered the copy e:\extract.exe c:\ command. here is what i found in a config.sys file. it mentions getting a real-mode cd-rom driver too. where does it go in the following file? and then i guess i should look on the cd-rom manufacturer's web page for the driver? it's a mitsumi fx120!b.

REM Tip: Put the real-mode driver for your CD-ROM in here.
REM It won't be used by Windows 95, but it will be used if you
REM choose "Restart your computer in MS-DOS mode" from
REM the Shutdown menu in Windows or if you choose F8 and select
REM one of the Startup menu options that let you enter into MS-DOS
REM instead of loading the Windows 95 GUI.

REM Be sure the information following the /D switch on the CD-ROM
REM driver matches the information following the /d: parameter on
REM MSCDEX loaded in Autoexec.bat.
