capable), refer to the ‘‘Install Hardware’’ portion of the ‘‘Non-Plug and Play Installa-
tion’’ section on page 71 of these instructions.
If you are installing your Plextor drive in a non-SCAM capable environment (your SCSI
controller is not SCAM capable), refer to the ‘‘Install Hardware’’ portion of the
‘‘Non-SCAM Installation’’ section on page 73 of these instructions.
Install Software
In order to use your Plextor drive under DOS or Windows 3.x to upgrade to Windows
95, you must have a device driver to support it. If you just installed a new SCSI
controller that you did not purchase from us, you also need to load what is called an
‘‘ASPI Manager’’ for your controller. Refer to your controller’s documentation for
instructions. If you purchased our kit, the ASPI Manager will load as part of our
CD-ROM device driver installation process. If you purchased our kit, or successfully
loaded the ASPI Manager, you are ready to go. Insert the Plextor Manager disk into
your floppy drive. Then enter the following DOS command to install the Plextor device
driver:
A:\install
Or, from your Program Manager in Windows, choose ‘‘File’’ and ‘‘Run,’’ and enter the
following on the command line:
A:\install
Install Windows 95
Insert your Windows 95 CD into your new Plextor CD-ROM drive and follow
Microsoft’s instructions for upgrading. During the installation process Windows 95
will attempt to find and install support for your SCSI controller, resulting in the
following scenarios:
Separately Purchased SCSI Controller
•
If you have a previously purchased and installed SCSI controller that
is supported by Windows 95, support will be loaded automatically.
•
If your previously purchased SCSI controller is not supported by
Windows 95, you will be prompted to insert a disk that includes the
appropriate file. That disk should have been provided with the
controller.
If you have a separately purchased SCSI board installed, we cannot guarantee support
will be available on Windows 95. After the upgrade finishes, you can check to see if
Windows recognizes your SCSI controller by selecting ‘‘My Computer.’’ If a CD-ROM
