CD-ROM device driver - IOCTL OUTPUT

AX = 4403h
BX = file handle referencing character device for CD-ROM driver
CX = number of bytes to write
DS:DX -> control block (see #01524)

Return:
CF clear if successful AX = number of bytes actually written CF set on error AX = error code (01h,05h,06h,0Dh) (see #01680 at AH=59h/BX=0000h)

Notes: Some device drivers support several subunits (that is more than one drive) but it is not possible to distinguish between them with this function; use INT 2F/AX=1510h or INT 2F/AX=0802h instead. Under Windows95, the "mscd$$$$" device cannot be opened so you cannot

obtain the handle required by this function:
Use INT 2F/AX=1510h or INT 2F/AX=0802h instead
