Tried to play a CD rom today on this RO 4.39 RPC, a pretty rare occurrence.
Have two machines, a player and writer. Both spun up the disc.

On clicking on the Icon, get the message 'Soft load driver not present.'

I have a Blitz card for the HDs, but pretty certain the CDs are on the IDE
bus. And did at one time work OK.

Do you have the CDFSSoftATAPI module loaded (and not unplugged)?

I don't remember if there is a way to say what kind of CD drive you have
available - try *Help CD. (including the dot) and see if there's anything
relevant.

Verma by Somascape 1998 (Lenny) RModule version information vers 0.27c
(11 Jun 2011) works here on RiscPC 4.39 & Pi 5.28.
Lists all modules & their state and allows you to Kill, Unplug, ReInit
etc.
Don't know where you can get it now s the web link appears defunct but
it's freeware so I can let you have a copy. Brilliant piece of kit.
