Where do I get the right autoexec/config settings for the DVD drive for a Dell Vostro 3560?

The OAKCDROM.SYS which come with Windows 9x/ME should be universal for ATAPI based C/DVD drives. It's parameter can be found in below forum post.

But after disassembling the driver, I found that the /P switch has a third optional value 0 or 1, which I don't know what it is used for.
IME, among other ATAPI C/DVD drivers, OAKCDROM.SYS is the most stable one
and would work for many drives, although it's not the most efficient in
memory usage.
