Hello.

But How to get this information ? ! ! ! ! 
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

Acer France support, Acer europe support does not give much information. 

After booting from "FREEDOS BOOTABLE CDROM" I can access the DVDROM (but 
ELTORITO is loaded) 

After booting from Hard Disk I cannot access DVDROM. 
But as I can access SATA HD. If both are SATA why can't I access DVDROM ? 

After clean up 

in FDCONFIG.SYS 
---------------- 
!DOS=HIGH,UMB 
!DOSDATA=UMB 
DEVICE=C:\FDOS\BIN\HIMEM.EXE 
DEVICE=C:\FDOS\BIN\EMM386.EXE NOEMS X=TEST 
DEVICEHIGH=C:\DRIVERS\UIDE.SYS /D:L633C 
SHELLHIGH=C:\FDOS\BIN\COMMAND.COM C:\FDOS\BIN /E:1024 /P=C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT 


in autoexec.bat

SHCDX33E.COM /D:L633C,W <--- W stand for fiwing drive letter W

Nevertheless, you should update a few things: HIMEM, EMM386, CTMOUSE, ...

NO. XDMA 3.1 is good (3.3 is buggy).

Doesn't work anyway, either native (XDMA doesn't support, later 
drivers do) or AHCI (later drivers don't either).

Right, don't use any other HD or CD driver besides UIDE.

Shouldn't be critical ...

But this IS IMPORTANT to know. None of existing DOS drivers supports AHCI.
