Changing the CONFIG.SYS File and Enabling the DMA Function
Add the following line to your CONFIG.SYS:
DEVICE = <PATH>\AOATAPI.SYS /D:<DEVICE_NAME> [/zzzz]
[/P:xxx,yy]
The <DEVICE_NAME> is the name of the MSCDEX file that will be used to find
the device driver. The maximum length of the <DEVICE_NAME> string is eight
characters.
The option [/zzzz] in character form specifies the DMA function, the Ultra-DMA
33 function or Bus Master DMA function. Please refer to the README.TXT file
for more details.
For example:
DEVICE=C:\CDROM\AOATAPI.SYS /D:IDECD000 /DMA /P:1F0,14
If your system board supports the Bus Master DMA function, the option /DMA
enables the Bus Master DMA function.
The option /P: specifies the I/O port address and IRQ level. The number xxx
in hexadecimal form specifies the I/O port address (such as 1F0, 170, 1E8, or
168), and yy specifies the IRQ level (such as 14, 15, 11, or 10 in decimal).
NOTE: If you are not familiar with I/O Port or IRQ level settings, do
not implement/P: option.
After changing the CONFIG.SYS, reboot the system.
Refer to the README.TXT file for the latest driver installation
updates.
For Windows 95 and Windows NT Environment
Windows 95 and Windows NT will automatically detect the new CD-ROM drive
and load the appropriate device driver. However, there are times when
Windows can not detect the CD-ROM drive. You will have to load the drivers
manually.
To install the drivers manually:
1. Click the Control Panel Icon in My Computer and then click Add
New Hardware. The Add New Hardware window appears.
2. The program will automatically search for your new CD-ROM Drive and
load the appropriate driver.
