Mitsumi IDE ATAPI CD-ROM DOS Driver v1.55
========================================= | SOFTWARE INSTALLATION PROCEDURES | ========================================= To install your CD-ROM drive for use with MS-DOS, you need: * An IBM personal computer or compatible with 80386 or later processor chip and a minimum of 640K of conventional memory. * A CD-ROM drive (included). * CD-ROM installation disk (included). * MS-DOS Version 3.1 or later. * Microsoft MS-DOS CD-ROM Extensions(MSCDEX.EXE). Note: Microsoft MS-DOS CD-ROM Extensions(MSCDEX.EXE) enables the computer to access the CD-ROM drive. MSCDEX.EXE must exist in your system in advance. ------------------------------------------ | WHAT'S ON THE INSTALLATION DISK? | ------------------------------------------ The installation disk contains all the software needed to install and operate the CD-ROM. A list of the files and a brief description of each follows: MTMCDAI.SYS CD-ROM device driver. MTMCDAI.386 Windows virtual device driver. SETUPD.EXE CD-ROM installation program which tells the CD-ROM driver how you want it organized. READMEA.ENG Text file is written by English. (This text file.) READMEA.GER Text file is written by German. READMEA.FRE Text file is written by French. READMEA.SPA Text file is written by Spanish. READMEA.ITA Text file is written by Italian. READMEA.JPN Text file is written by Japanese. ---------------------------------------------- | CD-ROM DEVICE DRIVER INSTALLATION | ---------------------------------------------- Certain software programs must be loaded in order to access a CD- ROM disc in your CD-ROM drive as if it were an MS-DOS formatted disk. The CD-ROM software files must be properly installed in your computer before the CD-ROM drive can read a CD-ROM disc. The procedure for installation is as follow: 1. Insert the supplied installation disk into drive A (or B). 2. Type A: (or B:) and press ENTER to select drive A (or B). 3. At the DOS prompt A:\ (or B:\), type SETUPD and press ENTER. (Run the program SETUPD.EXE on the disk.) 4. Follow the instructions on the screen. 5. Reboot your system when it completes successfully. -------------------------------- | DEVICE DRIVER PARAMETERS | -------------------------------- The MTMCDAI.SYS file is device driver that can be installed in the directory of your choice. The CONFIG.SYS file specifies this file, thereby allowing your computer to identify and operate the CD-ROM drive. This device driver can support up to 8 drives. Most computers will function adequately with most of the default settings for this file. However, there are some parameters that can be changed, if necessary. This section explains the function of each parameter. Use a text editor, such as MS-DOS "EDLIN", or "EDIT" to modify the appropriate line in your CONFIG.SYS file. For the MTMCDAI.SYS device driver, the line in CONFIG.SYS is in the following format. DEVICE=[drive:][path]MTMCDAI.SYS /D:device-name [/P:xxx,yy] [/A:n] [/U:n] [/L:xx] Note: The actual device driver entry is not truncated and should be placed entirely on one line in the CONFIG.SYS file. [drive:][path]MTMCDAI.SYS Specifies the location (drive and directory) and name of the device driver file. /D:device-name Specifies the device name of the CD-ROM drive (8 characters maximum). This must be identical to the device name specified in the MSCDEX.EXE parameters. For example: DEVICE=C:\MTM\MTMCDAI.SYS /D:MTMIDE01 [/P:xxx,yy] Specifies the IDE port that is connected to the drive, and the interrupt request. 'xxx' should be the base address of IDE port. xxx = 1f0 : Primary(Channel 1) 170 : Secondary(Channel 2) 1e8 : Channel 3 168 : Channel 4 'yy' should be the interrupt channel. yy = 14 : Primary(Channel 1) 15 or 10 : Secondary(Channel 2) 12 or 11 : Channel 3 10 or 9 : Channel 4 Only when the CD-ROM drives are connected to the primary port using interrupt channel 14 and/or the secondary port using interrupt channel 15 is it unnecessary to specify a /P parameter. For example, when eight drives has been connected, the syntax in the CONFIG.SYS file should be as follows: DEVICE=C:\MTM\MTMCDAI.SYS /D:MTMIDE01 /P:1f0,14 /P:170,15 /P:1e8,12 /P:168,10 Note: The actual device driver entry is not truncated and should be placed entirely on one line in the CONFIG.SYS file. [/A:n] Specifies the audio play mode. For a stereo CD, /A:0 or /A:1 is acceptable. For a monaural CD (left or right channel only), /A:1 will play the monaural audio signal from both the right and the left channels. Default is n=0. [/U:n] Specifies the door lock or unlock. /U:0 is 'unlock'. /U:1 is 'lock'. Default is n=0. [/L:xx] Specifies the message language. Applicable language is as follows: 'xx' = US : English (This is default.) GR : German FR : French SP : Spanish IT : Italian JP : Japanese If you want English, you do not have to specify. If you want the other language, the syntax in the CONFIG.SYS file should be as follows: DEVICE=C:\MTM\MTMCDAI.SYS /D:MTMIDE01 /L:JP ------------------------------------------- | REGARDING MTMCDAI.386 | ------------------------------------------- If you use Windows with 32-bit Disk Access enabled, you should use MTMCDAI.386 (only same IDE port with hard disk). Setup program will help you install automatically. If you want to install manually, the following line should be added in [386enh] section of SYSTEM.INI file. DEVICE=[drive:][path]MTMCDAI.386 Known Problem: The this driver does not work correctly under the following configuration. * Windows for Workgroups 3.11 32-bit Disk Access enable 32-bit File Access enable * Compressed hard disk by software (DBLSPACE,STACKER...) You should disable either 32-bit Disk Access or 32-bit File Access. ------------------------------------------- | REGARDING SMARTDRV | ------------------------------------------- SMARTDRV attached to MS-DOS 6.2 (PC-DOS 6.3) or later is supposed to CD-ROM caching. If CD-ROM caching is enabled, it is possible that CD-ROM does not work properly.(such as Photo CD) In this case, you should add the following /U switch to disable CD-ROM caching.
