An IBM PC/AT compatible PC with a single Intel x86 (Pentium 133 MHz or higher) or fully compatible CPU. 1. Does NOT work on multiple CPU systems. 2. Does NOT work on RISC based systems (Alpha AXP, MIPS R4x00, or PowerPCs). b. At least a single 3.5 inch floppy disk drive: 3.5 inch, 1.44MB floppy disk drive, or a 3.5 inch Japanese 3-mode floppy disk drive.

Microsoft Millennium 2. Microsoft Windows 98 3. Microsoft Windows 95 4. Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 5. Windows NT 3.51 6. Windows 3.x or MS-DOS. 3. ===[IMPORTANT NOTES (CAUTION)]=== Incompatible Floppy Disk Drives (FDDs) with which FlashPath cannot be used. The FlashPath cannot be used with a FDD which is connected via a different interface from ordinary FDDs. Unsupported FDDs include the following: 1. An external FDD connected via a PC card (PCMCIA), or USB/ serial/ parallel ports. 2. A high recording capacity FDD such as a Imation SuperDisk (LS-120) 120MB/ 1.44MB floppy disk drive (they connect to the PC through an IDE cable or parallel (printer) port, rather than the standard floppy drive port). 3. If you access the FlashPath when the "FlashPath Status Monitor" program is not activated (i.e. while its icon is not shown on the task bar) and then activate the program later, the display will not immediately reflect the current internal status of the FlashPath. This is because the "FlashPath Status Monitor" program starts operating the moment it detects the first access made after the FlashPath has been inserted in the FDD. Therefore, in order to make sure that the "FlashPath Status Monitor" reflects the internal status of the FlashPath, eject the FlashPath from the FDD, and then insert it again. 4. ===[NOTES]=== A.
