The NONSTOP Option
This Section only applies if you are using MD-DOS or Windows 3
When the DOS system loads the backpack software driver, it will scan the par-
allel printer ports looking for backpack drives. If it doesn't find at least one
backpack CD-ROM drive, it will issue an error message and wait for you to
press the ESC key to acknowledge the message. This could become annoying if
the backpack drive isn't always connected to the computer.
The NONSTOP software option can be used to suppress the error message that
is displayed if no backpack drive is found when the system starts. Perform the
following steps to specify the NONSTOP option:
14)Using a suitable text editor or word processor (in nondocument, or DOS
text mode), bring up the CONFIG.SYS file from your hard drive for
editing.
15)Locate the line that references BPCDDRV.SYS and add NONSTOP to the
end of it, as shown below:
device=\bpcdrom\bpcddrv.sys nonstop
Be sure to type a space before NONSTOP.
3) Save the modified CONFIG.SYS file on your hard drive.
