You may also manually install the CD-421 OS/2 device driver if the
default setting conflicts with your system. Perform the following
procedure to complete the manual installation.
1. Copy EXPCD2.FLT file from A:\OS2WARP to the BOOT
subdirectory of OS/2 directory (for example: C:\OS2\BOOT.)
2. Add the following line to the BOTTOM of your CONFIG.SYS file:
BASEDEV=EXPCD2.FLT /P:1 /I:15
The parameters of EXPCD2.FLT are described as below:
/P
is used to set the I/O ports, and the valid numbers are 1, 2, and 3.
Each number represents the I/O ports group of (170-177, 376-377);
(1E8-1EF, 3EE-3EF), and (168-16F, 36E-36F) respectively. The
default setting is
/P:1
.
/I
is used to set the IRQ number, the valid IRQs are 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10,
11, 12 and 15, and the default setting is
