I have a friend with the same problem and we fixed it by one or more of the
following:

1 Windows 9x treats ALL drives as if they are SCSI devices ( or it's
supposed to, anyway ). The CEQuadrat software which he had would only
recognise SCSI devices and would not work successfully with anything else,
as far as writers go. I believe that an upgrade of the software worked a
bit.

2 Unfortunately, I can't remember what brand it was ( Kodak, I think?!) but
we found a mini-port driver for it on the web somewhere, possibly
driverguide.com, and this helped too.

3 It is a good idea to install the latest Adaptec ASPI drivers anyway with
win95, as they are a bit old

4 An upgrade of EzyCD let it recognise IDE CDR drives.

Hope that this is of some help.
