ISA CD-ROM Adapter Card	61G4110
Audio/Data Cable	06H3085

Installing ISA CD-ROM Adapter Card

1.  Select the I/O address.
    The Adapter card is preset to address 300H-303 If you have another adapter  adapter card at I/O address 300-303, or if you are installing a second ISA CD-ROM  adapter card, you must insure that the cards are at different I/O addresses.  To change the I/O address, refer to the following table.

   Address	DIP SW1 1-2
   300H	ON ON
   310H	ON OFF
   320H	OFF ON
   330H	OFF OFF

    

2.  The CD-ROM Drive is preset to Drive-ID '0'. If you have to install a  another Drive, be sure that you have selected a different Drive-ID.
3.  If this is the first time CD-ROM installation on the machine  Insert the ISA CD-ROM Option/Device Driver Diskette into drive A.

   For IBM DOS 3.3 or higher

    Type A:UINSTALL: at the operating system prompt (usually C:) and press Enter.  Follow the instructions on the screen to install the CD-ROM support software.

   For IBM OS/2 V-2.0 or higher

   1.  Select either OS/2 Window or OS/2 Full Screen.
   2.  Type DDINSTALL at the operating system prompt (usually C:\) and  press ENTER.  Follow the instructions on the screen to install the correct device driver for your version of OS/2.
   3.  After the device driver has been installed you will be instructed to remove the diskette from drive A, and  restart your computer. It is not necessary to restart the computer at this time. Proceed to OS/2 ISA CD-ROM Drive Support Software.
