VXIPC-871B CD-ROM boot

I have got a VXIPC-871B that is running 2000 or Millenium OS.  The only existing account is an administrator account that nobody can recall the password to.

 

I cannot boot to the embedded CD-ROM drive using the NI embedded controller installation CD.   And I realized that our only rescue diskette does not include a CD-ROM DOS driver.  I have had a look around the C: drive after booting to the A: drive and I cannot locate anything that might help me with a CD-ROM boot into the VXI controller.

 

Is there something installed with the ME OS version that will allow me an Embedded CD-ROM DOS boot?  Maybe then I can run the installation CD or a Rescue CD-ROM.

 

Any useful information would be handy,

Mike B.

Hi Mike,

 

There's nothing that I'm aware of that allows an Embedded CD-ROM DOS boot from Millenium, but perhaps Microsoft might have some information on that.
