ULTRAPLEX 40X OPERATION MANUAL

Adding CD-ROM Support After NT Has Already Been
Installed
1) You first need to verify that your SCSI interface board is supported by
NT. Check your NT manual for information on which SCSI interface
boards NT supports. If your SCSI interface board is included on the
list of supported hardware, skip to Step 3.
2) If your SCSI interface board is not on NT's list of supported hardware,
you must contact your board's manufacturer and request an NT
software device driver, see listing page 66.
3) Run NT's Setup program to add support for your SCSI interface board.
Select “Add/Remove SCSI Adapters” from the menu. Choose your
SCSI interface board from the list or add the driver you obtained from
your SCSI interface board manufacturer.
4) Shut down your system and connect your UltraPleX to the SCSI
controller.
5) Turn ON your computer and your UltraPleX drive should now be
visible to the system.
Windows NT Troubleshooting Tip
If you have difficulty getting NT to recognize your CD-ROM drive and SCSI
interface board, you should first verify that all of your hardware is operating
properly.
This is best done by installing DOS. If your system does not work under DOS,
you probably have a hardware problem that needs to be resolved before you
can go any further. If your system works under DOS, but not NT, review your
device driver installation and verify that the SCSI interface board device driver
and CD-ROM support (Step 4, above) are loaded correctly.
As an alternative, you can boot the system to DOS from a floppy. The contents
for this floppy may be available on Plextor’s web site (www.plextor.com).
Please check this first. If you do not locate the files on our web site, contact
Technical Support by following the instructions in Chapter 13. They can help
you locate the files or send them to you via email.
Once you have created the floppy, insert it into the floppy drive and reboot
your system. At the prompt select the drive letter for the CD-ROM drive (e.g.
at the A: prompt, type D:). If the drive is functional and you have a disc in the
drive, you should be able to see a list of directories and files on the CD (type
DIR at the prompt). If the CD-ROM drive is functioning properly, you can then
focus on the OS install or configuration of other equipment or software as
likely suspects.
