Device Drivers

When using Windows 95/98/2000 or Window NT Workstation Ver. 4.0, the 
installation of any software driver or special device is not required.

This CD-ROM drive is supplied with MS-DOS drivers on a 3

-inch floppy disk.

These drivers are required to use the CD-ROM drive in DOS and Windows 3.1.

Drivers for other Operating Systems are not normally required or available as 
they usually have an generic IDE, E-IDE/ATAPI CD-ROM driver built in; Windows 
95, 98, NT 3.51 and higher and OS/2 Warp 3.0 are such examples.

If it is necessary to edit any file manually, first make a backup copy on a floppy 
disk, then edit the original file, save it to your hard drive, exit, and re-boot the
PC to ensure the change will be implemented.
