MANUAL INSTALLATION
You may also manually install the PCMCIA CD-ROM device driver if the
default setting conflicts with your system. Perform the following
procedure to complete the manual installation.
1. Copy the files EXPCDI.EXE from the PCMCIA CD-ROM device driver
disk to your hard disk.
2. Add “
LASTDRIVE=Z
” to the TOP of your CONFIG.SYS file. If you
already have a LASTDRIVE line with a letter other than Z, change it
to Z.
3. Add the following lines to the BOTTOM of your CONFIG.SYS file:
DEVICE=
drive:\path
\EXPCDI.EXE /P:1 /I:15 /D:MSCD001
where
drive:\path
specifies the directory containing file EXPCDI.EXE.
Note: If your CONFIG.SYS file is already loaded with PCMCIA software,
such as Cardsoft of SystemSoft or Cardtalk of Databook, it is necessary
to add the above line AFTER the PCMCIA software. Otherwise, the
PCMCIA interface card will not be initialized properly. To make sure if
any PCMCIA software has been loaded in your system and to know
more about PCMCIA, please refer to the section titled “PCMCIA
Software Information”.
EXPCDI.EXE is the device driver for the PCMCIA CD-ROM. The
parameters of EXPCDI.EXE are described as below:
