Appendix B: Installing in Windows
This appendix contains more detailed explanations of installation in Windows 95, 98,
and NT, whether you have new or older hardware and software.
Installing in Windows 95/98
This section explains how to install drivers that let your SCSI interface board work
with the Windows 95/98 operating system. If you have any problems at all, our
technical support staff will help you.
Install Hardware
Before installing software drivers, install the SCSI interface board and PlexWriter
hardware. Check that all the cable connections between your PlexWriter drive and
PC are correct and that all switches, dials, and termination are set properly. If you are
using a PlexWriter external drive, turn the power switch to OFF. Once the drive
installation is complete, remember to turn the drive’s power ON before turning your
computer on.
Install SCSI Drivers for Windows 95/98
After your CD-ROM drive and SCSI interface board are installed, it is time to make
the right software file available to complete your installation.
To install software if you purchased a Plextor drive with PCI SCSI Kit:
1.
Turn on your computer. Your system should automatically detect and configure
your SCSI interface board. When you start Windows 95/98, it will then recognize
that it does not have a driver installed for your new SCSI interface board. A
dialog box named New Hardware Found appears, followed immediately by a
dialog box named Insert Disk.
2.
Click OK in the Insert Disk dialog box. You see a second New Hardware Found
dialog box will appear, asking you to insert the Windows 95/98 disk or CD.
DON'T DO IT!
CAUTION:
If you do put in your Microsoft disk or CD, Windows 95/98 may
automatically load an incorrect file version for the SCSI interface board we provided in
our PCI SCSI drive kits.
3.
Insert the Plextor PlexWriter CD. This disc has the approved driver file for your
SCSI interface board, and will let Windows complete the installation.
4.
After inserting the disc, select Browse in the dialog box and then select the
appropriate drive letter, and path. The Windows 95/98 configuration process
should select the correct file from the disc and copy it to the correct Windows
95/98 subdirectory on your hard drive.
