DESCRIPTION

During an installation of OS/2 Warp 3.0 from CD, a red screen appears 
with the message:

   Cannot find the CD-ROM.

RESOLUTION

Most of the Compaq SystemPro and DeskPro series have the built-in SCSI 
chip set on the system board, AMDPCNET-SCSI. OS/2 Warp does not come 
with the driver for that chip set, so the system does not recognize the
CD-ROM or SCSI device attached to it.

Compaq has an OS/2 SCSI device driver, AMSIO2.ADD, that works with OS/2 
Warp 3.0. Contact the vendor about obtaining the driver file, 
SP0928.ZIP.
