How can I make my CD drive run with DOS?
DOS FAQ by Christoph FuchsThat's fairly easy: You simply need to add a line to your CONFIG.SYS file, for example: DEVICE=C:\CDROM\IDE_CD.SYS /D:CD0001 Please change C:\CDROM\IDE_CD.SYS to your cd driver for DOS.

How can I make my CD-ROM drive work with PS-DOS?
DOS FAQ by Christoph FuchsIn version 2000 from PhysTechSoft exists a built-in cd-rom driver.

Can I run Quicken for DOS on it?
HPLX.NET FAQs: THE FAQYes, users have reported success with DOS-based Quicken through version 8 (most recent DOS Quicken version). Recent versions may require more memory than is available under the system manager, but it's easy enough to exit the system manager and run Quicken directly from the DOS prompt, or run it in a separate Software Carousel work area. The "disable filer" trick may allow you to squeeze even the latest Quicken in under the system manager. See similar questions...
Can I run R from a CD or USB drive?
R for Windows FAQYes, with care. A basic R installation is relocatable, so you can burn an image of the R installation on your hard disc or install directly onto a removable storage device such as a flash-memory USB drive. (If you have installed packages into a private library, their absolute paths will appear in the HTML packages list.) Running R does need access to a writable temporary directory and to a home directory, and in the last resort these are taken to be the current directory. See similar questions...
Will GRBackPro back up to my CD / DVD drive?
Data Backup Software for Windows Professional Tool GRBackPro...Yes. Writing to CD and DVD discs is supported as long as you have some packet writing software installed on your computer.

AutoItIf you wanted to run something like a DOS "Dir" command then you must run it though the command interpreter (command.com or cmd.exe depending on your OS).

I've got Guide 8.0, and my computer has two CD drives. Can I run Guide with a CD in each drive?
FAQ for Guide usersYes. To do this, you will have to edit the file STARTUP.MAR and look for a line such as this: 18 drive d:\ where 'd' will be the letter of the CD-ROM drive from which Guide was installed. If you had a second drive with, say, letter E:, you would change the above line to read: 18 drive d:\;e:\ After doing this, Guide will be quite flexible about reading data from both drives. You would need to have disk #1 in one of the two drives (doesn't matter which one). See similar questions...
