I should note, at setup win2k puts the driver for the rom in a RAM drive,,, it will
add the driver to the HD so it can use it when it loads your desktop.
It's on the HD in the I386 folder and the dllcache folder,the dllcache folder is
a hiidden system folder on the HD. it takes a INF file to install it, the INF files
are also on the HD in a hidden folder..and you can use it to install the rom driver..just
right click on it and select install..
