PC/TV Link Disk, pg. 8
Installation steps for Windows Me:
1)
Connect the Power cable and USB cable to the Drive (see page 6).
2)
Press the Power button.
3)
Wait a few moments for Windows Me to detect the drive and begin loading device
driver files. The PC/TV Link Disk uses generic “USB Mass Storage Class” device
drivers that are already installed as part of the operating system. Windows Me will
install the necessary device drivers automatically.
4)
Open Window Device Manager to confirm the installation of a new USB device. Click
Start > Settings > Control Panel > System > Device Manager. Scroll down to
“Universal Serial Bus Controllers” and click the “+” sign to display all USB devices. If
installed correctly, “USB Mass Storage Device ” will be listed as a new USB device
(similar to Windows XP/2000).
5)
FILE SYSTEM CONVERSION: If the PC/TV Link Disk is pre-formatted as a FAT32
Disk, you will see a new Hard Drive in Windows “My Computer,” indicating that the
installation is complete. If the PC/TV Link Disk is pre-formatted as an NTFS Disk,
Windows Me will not be able to access the drive even though the new hardware
device is listed correctly in Windows “Device Manager.” Windows Me does not
support the NTFS File system. You will need to delete the existing NTFS partition and
reformat the PC/TV Link Disk using the FAT32 file system. Use FDISK or a similar
disk utility program to re-partition and reformat the disk (see “Partitioning the Link
Disk (Windows 98SE/Me)” on page 13).
Installation Steps for Window 98SE:
WARNING: Windows 98SE does not support USB 2.0 Hi-Speed disk drives or USB 2.0 High
Speed Host Controllers without special device drivers supplied by the manufacturer. Product
software must be installed BEFORE connecting the PC/TV Link Disk.

installation program does not start automatically, open the CD-ROM in “My
Computer” and select “Autorun.exe” to start the installation.
