Re: [Thinkpad] 600E DVD DMA Problem

There isn't a machine.inf in either of the two Win98 supplement file
diskettes:

http://www-3.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-4FJ3SC
http://www-3.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=DSHY-3VQQS6

But there is one in the Win95 diskette:

http://www-3.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=EMON-3MDJP2

So I should use a INF file from Win95 in my Win98?
