The software on this diskette supports the ISO 9660 volume and
file structure for optical drives. The files included are:
READ.ME - This text file.
SCSI.MSC - Device driver to support the SCSI host adapter
CM153.MSC - Device driver to support the CM153 host adapter
CM154.MSC - Device driver to support the CM154 host adapter
MSCDEX.EXE - Microsoft~ extensions to support the file system
CONFIG.DMO - Sample file for configuration at BOOT time
AUTOEXEC.DMO - Sample file for automatic execution at BOOT time
CDSETUP.EXE - Automated install program.
CD_AUDIO.COM - A utility program for demonstrating the audio features
of the device driver.
These device drivers adhere to the Microsoft specification for
control of optical drives using personal computers and MS-DOS.
Please read the installation manual. This document explains in
detail how to install the device driver and the extensions.
A setup program is now included for automating the installation
procedure. Run the program CDSETUP to use it.
A suggested procedure is:
- Run CDSETUP
or:
- Copy the driver and extensions to your boot disk.
- Use the following statement in your configuration file:
DEVICE = drivername (This is the simplest usage.)
Examples are:
CM153 adapter -
DEVICE = CM153.MSC
CM154 adapter specifying device name, specify the port
addresses for the board, specify default volume level -
DEVICE = CM154.MSC /D:HSDVDMSC /P:350 360 /v:30
ASC SCSI adapter using default device name, logical device 0
is at SCSI ID 0 -
DEVICE = SCSI.MSC /U0:0 /A:ASC88T
NCR adapter two devices at SCSI IDs 0 and 1, specify device
name -
DEVICE = SCSI.MSC /D:MSCD001 /U0:0 /U1:1 /A:NCR31S
Future Domain adapter -
DEVICE = SCSI.MSC /U0:0 /A:FUTURED
- Check the installation manual for specific information
needed to support non-standard hardware or software
configurations. The default options are defined as
follows:
a. CM153 Default --> /D:hsdvdmsc /P:340
b. SCSI Default --> /D:hsdvdmsc /U:0 /A:ASC88T
c. CM154 Default --> /D:hsdvdmsc /V:50
Note: there are no defaults for the CM154 device driver port
addresses, they MUST be specified on the 'DEVICE =' line of
the config.sys file.
- The following statement should be included in your
AUTOEXEC file if you wish to install the extensions at
BOOT time.
MSCDEX.EXE /D:HSDVDMSC (This is the simplest usage.)
A more complex usage specifying the device name, use 20
sector buffers, use verbose mode, use expanded memory
if it is installed, and specify drive letter L for the
first CDROM drive:
MSCDEX /D:HSDVDMSC /M:20 /V /E /L:L
Please note:
cdsetup - The two lines that are added to the CONFIG.SYS file
are inserted at the very front. This is done because of
two requirements. The 'device=' line must be placed before
the Microsoft mouse driver if one exists. If this placement
does not fit with your system requirements, you will have
to manually edit the file.
The line in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file that executes the
Microsoft Extensions is placed last. If your AUTOEXEC.BAT
file starts a shell program or runs another batch file
then you must edit AUTOEXEC.BAT and make sure that
MSCDEX is executed first otherwise it will not have a
chance to start the drives.
cd_audio - This is a utility program included free-of-charge. LMS can
not warrant full functionality in all system configurations.
This program uses the line drawing characters of the video
system. It is specifically designed for CGA and up but
should work on most MDA video systems.
The "NO AUDIO" statement in the list of available drives
refers to the presence of a CM154 volume controllable
port, not whether an audio disc is present.
The select drive function, F1, has problems. Currently
cd_audio requires the audio drive to be drive 0.
PS/2 - Certain applications written for PC based computers do
not run on PS/2 model machines. Please be aware of this
if you have problems on a PS/2.
