After reboot, the SND4DOS will be invoked and bring up the DOS driver installation program (install.com on the installation disk ) to install the DOS driver and remove the line SND4DOS inserted in AUTOEXEC.BAT. Please follow the following procedure to install the software: 1. Follow the installation guideline provided with 929 Windows 95 driver to install the Windows 95 driver. 2. During the first reboot after installed the 929 Windows 95 driver, the program SND4DOS will take over.

DOS INSTALL.COM will do the followings for you: a.) Create the directory \SOUND16 in your hard disk drive. b.) Prompt you for CD-ROM and sound card options so that after you have finished the installation and have rebooted your machine, you will be ready to use the sound card. c.) Copy the files in your floppy disk to the SOUND16 directory. d.)

CD-ROM Interface Setup Device Driver The CD-ROM Setup Device Driver is called CDSETUP.SYS. This driver sets up the interface of your CD-ROM to the MAD16 sound card. Each time you change or add a CD-ROM to your sound card. The line "DEVICE=CDSETUP.SYS..." will be added to the first line of your CONFIG.SYS file before the CD-ROM device driver line. CDSETUP.SYS is defined as follows: DEVICE=[drive:]\[directory]\CDSETUP.SYS /T:[M/S/P/I/X] /P:[addr] /I:[IRQ] /D:[DMA] [drive] = drive where you have the driver installed [directory] = directory where the driver is located [M/S/P/I/X] = M stands for Mitsumi S stands for SONY P stands for PANASONIC I stands for IDE drive X stands for disabled [address] = Port address for CD-ROM (320, 330, 340, 360) [IRQ] = Interrupt number (5,7,9,10,11) [DMA] = DMA channel (0, 1, 3) For example, the following line sets up the interface for a Mitsumi CD-ROM: DEVICE=C:\SOUND16\CDSETUP.SYS /T:M /P:340 /I:10 If you did not specify the /I or /D options, CDSETUP will automatically choose the default setting for the CD-ROM type your have specified. - For Mitsumi, the IRQ is 10 and DMA is disabled. - For SONY, they are both disabled. - FOR PANASONIC, they are both disabled. For IDE drive, you need to just specify the /T:I option. Specifying any other option in addition to this will be ignored. The I/O Port and Interrupt for IDE is located at 170H and Int 15.
