Plug and Play Installation
Install Hardware
You should be able to simply install your SCSI controller, CD-ROM drive, and all
cabling without any concern for things like SCSI ID selection. First, turn off your
computer system, then review Chapter 8. You should also familiarize yourself with
the chapter on Termination. However, the quick solution here is to place your internal
drive at one end of the SCSI ribbon cable and the SCSI controller at the other end of
the cable. Your drive ships from the factory with termination enabled so everything
should be fine. If you put another SCSI device between the controller and the drive,
you need to make sure termination is disabled on that device. For external devices, if
your Plextor drive is the last in a chain of devices, leave termination enabled. If it is
not last in the chain, disable termination. All SCAM capable boards should have the
ability to automatically set termination of the board itself so you should not have to
deal with this. Once your hardware is Plugged in, it is time to Play. But first we have
to take care of that little device driver problem.
Install Software
After your CD-ROM drive and SCSI controller are installed, it is time to make the right
software file available to complete your Plug and Play environment. Turn on your
computer, and your system should automatically detect and configure your SCSI
controller. When you start Windows 95 it will then recognize that it does not have the
right driver available for your new SCSI controller. A dialog box named ‘‘New Hardware
Found’’ appears, followed immediately by a dialog box named ‘‘Insert Disk.’’ At this
point, click on ‘‘OK’’ in the ‘‘Insert Disk’’ dialog box and a second ‘‘New Hardware
Found’’ dialog box will appear. It will ask you to insert the Windows 95 disk or CD.
Please, DON’T DO IT. If you do put in your Microsoft disk or CD, Windows 95 may
automatically load the non-SCAM capable file for the SCSI controller we provided.
Instead, if you purchased a Plextor kit with SCSI controller, insert the Plextor Manager
disk. This disk has the SCAM capable support file for your SCSI controller to complete
your Plug and Play CD-ROM environment. After inserting the disk, select ‘‘Browse’’
in the dialog box and then select the appropriate drive letter. The Windows 95
configuration process should select the correct file off the disc and copy it to the correct
Windows 95 subdirectory on your hard drive.
If you purchased a SCAM capable SCSI controller separately, the correct file is
hopefully located on a disk provided with the controller. We suggest you first try using
this disk, supplied by the manufacturer of your SCSI controller, rather than inserting
the Windows 95 disk. If you do not have such a disk (or cannot find it among all the
other disks you have), you can try using the files provided by Windows 95, but we
cannot guarantee you will get SCAM support.
