Introduction
ATAPI CD-ROM
Thank you for purchasing a MITSUMI CD-ROM drive. This installation
manual should help you with the installation of your CD-ROM drive.
You can find the technical specifications for your drive and the numbers to call
up our Support Hotline in the Specifications (Datacard). In the same way as
driving a car, the installation of a CD-ROM drive is not a big challenge, but
you should know some basic things before you start, just like when driving.
We have put together a few questions which you should be able to answer
easily if you want to install the drive yourself.
• Do you know about problems with electrostatic discharge in connection
with computer peripherals?
• Do you understand what is meant by a „jumper“? Do you know what a
jumper is used for?
• Do you know about the different types of ribbon cables used in your PC
(36-, 40-, 50-pin)?
• Do you know about the terms „Primary“, „Secondary“, „Master“ and
„Slave“ in connection with IDE drives?
The glossary given in this manual should be able to make clear these points for
you. If not, it is best to leave the installation of your CD-ROM drive to an
expert.
If problems do arise during installation, then please call up our Support
Hotline at the numbers given in the list.
Help on basic problems, such as the installation of Windows 95, the installati-
on of sound cards from various manufacturers, or any software and hardware
from other manufacturers, is not part of the help available from the Mitsumi
hotline, since in most cases we do not have the necessary documentation.
