How do I get my sound card and CD-ROM drive to work in DOS?

 Windows 98
Windows 95 |

When Windows isn't running, neither are any of its drivers. You'll have to install the appropriate DOS drivers for all of your devices into ancient files called AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS - follow the instructions that come with each device to do so.
Hint: you can get CD-ROM support in DOS by booting off of the Windows Startup Disk (double-click Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel, and choose the Startup Disk tab).
