didier,
You main problem is that you don't know how or are not correctly describing how 
VCC should be used. Read the .pfd that comes with the program.
1) You can't mount ROM or CART images in the VCC Cartridge panel. You can only 
mount .dll files:fd502.dll, harddisk.dll, mpi.dll, orch90.dll
2) A basic VCC disk system requires mounting fd502.dll in Cartridge, and setting 
FD-502 config for Disk Basic. There should not be any problem using the WIDTH 
commands.
3) If you now set FD-502 config for external ROM and mount hdbdw3bc3.rom, you 
will have DriveWire support. Again the WIDTH commands should work.
If you use the mpi.dll in Cartridge, then the other .dll get mounted in the mpi 
slots.
