I am writing a batch file to update system settings using Free DOS. I would
like to eject the CD/DVD upon completion. I tried utilities like ej,
eject.exe,fxeject, cddoor. I am not able to eject the CD drive.

The error that I get while using eject.exe is: "No ATAPI CD-ROM detected"

I was also not able to find any utilities on the FreeDOS webpage. Any
suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Sai

Thanks for the reply. I got it working. I also had to install gcdrom.sys
drivers.
