Integration of the CD-ROM Into
Your Operating System
ATAPI CD-ROM
28
The procedure for installing the device drivers and integrating the CD-ROM
into the computer operating system differs from case to case. The list below is
by no means complete and can only describe the basic steps of installation.
One important point is the fact that, depending on the driver or operating
system used, your drive may be recognized only as Mitsumi ATAPI drive or an
older Mitsumi CD-ROM drive model. Due to the hardware-independent ATAPI
standard, however, this will not affect the speed of your drive.
Please refer to the user manual on your operating system for further installati-
on instructions.
DOS/Windows 3.x
A separate driver installation is required for the MS-DOS operating system
(Novell DOS, PC DOS, etc.). You will require the supplied driver diskette and
the information on where the file „MSCDEX.EXE“ is located (this only
applies for MS-DOS, the name may differ in DOS versions from other sup-
pliers). Please consult your manual for further information.
Insert the supplied device driver disk into your floppy disk drive and start the
installation program by typing <drive>:\SETUPD where <drive> is the letter
used to identify your disk drive (e.g. A:\SETUPD). The menu-driven installati-
on program will now guide you step by step through the installation routine
and update the files CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT. If so desired, it will
also update the SYSTEM.INI file in Microsoft Windows version 3.x.
SETUP assumes a standard configuration using the primary or secondary IDE
interface. If this is not the case, you need to change the corresponding entry in
CONFIG.SYS (see Appendix 1).
Windows 95, Windows NT, OS/2, Linux
Support of ATAPI CD-ROM drives has already been implemented in these
operating systems and no additional drivers are required. The following gives
you specific information on the individual operating systems.
