1.1 Adding the DVD-ROM to a configuration with one IDE Hard Disk Set DVD-A01/DVD-101 to SL (Slave mode) by setting a jumper on the rear side. Make sure the Hard Disk is set to IDE Master mode (Check your Hard Disk�s documentation for details). 1.2 Connecting the DVD-ROM to an IDE card MA (Master mode) or SL (Slave mode) are both valid settings. 2.1.3 Modify AUTOEXEC.BAT Add the following line to AUTOEXEC.BAT: e.g. MSCDEX.EXE /D:PIONEER Make sure the CD-ROM Device name is the same as in CONFIG.SYS: �/D : PIONEER�. (In case you didn�t specify this option in CONFIG.SYS, specify �/D:MSCD001�) 2.2 MS-Windows Ver. 3.xx (Ver. 3.1, Ver. 3.11, for Workgroup) In case the DVD-A01/DVD-101 is connected to the Primary IDE Channel and the IDE Hard Disk is set to Master mode, the �32bitDiskAccess� parameter in the Windows SYSTEM.INI file should be set to OFF. This can be achieved in two ways: Double-click Control Panels, then double-click �386 Enhanced� and check off the �32bitDiskAccess� checkbox. Click OK and restart. Experienced users can edit the SYSTEM.INI file in the Windows directory: 32bitDiskAccess = OFF 2.3 Windows NT (Upper Ver. 3.5) After connecting the DVD-A01/DVD-101 to the primary IDE Channel in Slave mode, install Windows NT. Then the DVDROM drive will be automatically recognized. If you are adding the DVD-A01/DVD-101 to an existing Windows NT installation, refer to the Windows NT documentation. (The DVD-A01/DVD-101 can be installed as an ATAPI device) 2.4 Windows 95 After connecting the DVD-A01/DVD-101 to the primary or secondary IDE channel, refer to section 2.1 and install the (MS-)DOS device driver (ATAPI_CD.SYS). If you are adding the DVD-A01/DVD-101 to Windows 95, the DVD-A01/DVD-101 will be automatically recognized.

2. OS Specific Information
2.1 MS-DOS If your OS is MS-DOS (or IBM PC-DOS), then perform the following steps: 2.1.1 Copy from floppy disk Copy the file ATAPI_CD.SYS to your Hard Disk. 2.1.2 Modify CONFIG.SYS After connecting the DVD-ROM drive and copying the device driver to the Hard Disk, add the following line to CONFIG.SYS: DEVICE=C:¥ATAPI_CD.SYS LASTDRIVE=Z Valid options for this device driver are listed below. In most cases however, you don�t need to specify any options. In case no options are specified, the driver will search for the DVDA01/DVD-101 automatically. If the device driver loads successfully but the DVD-ROM can�t be accessed, you must specify the LASTDRIVE line in CONFIG.SYS. Setting device driver options: e.g. DEVICE=C:¥ATAPI_CD.SYS /S:1 /D:MSCD001 [Option] /S:x ���> DVD-ROM Drive ID. This determines the setting of the drive to Master or Slave and the connection to the Primary or Secondary IDE channel. x = 0: Master Drive on Primary IDE Channel 1: Slave Drive on Primary IDE Channel 2: Master Drive on Secondary IDE Channel 3: Slave Drive on Secondary IDE Channel /D: ******* CD-ROM Device name e.g. /D:PIONEER If you do not specify this option, a default CD-ROM Device name is used: �MSCD001�. In case you copied the device driver to a sub-directory, specify the FULL PATH name in the �DEVICE=..... � line in CONFIG.SYS.
