Default Problem with TR1-gold spin-down (temp-solution found)

My problem is as thus.
I'm using "Microsoft Virtual PC 2007"
loaded with an MSDOS6.22 install.

I've used my Boot disk (upon start up) to load the OAKCDROM.sys driver
to use the cd rom drive.

I stuck in my "Tomb Raider GOLD" cd and installed to start playing.
Plays fine, If you play "FAST"

But if I'm interrupted (or slowed down in my gaming)
the game doesn't access the disk for a while causing it to spin-down and stop,
Which causes the game to freeze... COMPLETELY.

Is there a way to keep the drive from spinning down at least while I'm playing THIS game ???

I guess I sort of created my own temp-solution for the problem.

NVM, I found a temp-solution...
