This README.TXT describes how to use the device driver .

1.Files
  This diskette contains following programs and files.

  SJCDAPI.SYS : Device driver for SANYO CRD-254P .
                This program is a low level device driver 
                for the interface card.
  
  README.TXT  : This text file.

2.The parameters of device drivers

  Here you a list of the value of all parameters for entering the device
  driver in the file CONFIG.SYS. These parameters should only be used by
  those of you who already have good experience with computers. Wrong entries
  can cause malfunctions and even damage!
  
  The general form of the control line for entering the device driver in the
  file CONFIG.SYS is:
    DEVICE = [Path]Device_driver_name /D:Device_name [/B:Base address]
    Note : The entries in square brakets are not always necessary. 

  The  parameters have the following significance:

    /D:<Device name>
      Gives the type name of the used CD-ROM drive. At the CD-ROM drive 
      usually the type name MSCD000 is used as device name, unless your
      application program for the reading of the CD-data explicitly requires
      another device name during the installation.
      The name must be identical with the device names given in the file
      AUTOEXEC.BAT behind MSCDEX.EXE.

    /P:<P|S>
      Gives the port address for CD-ROM interface. 
      If P is set, port address will be set at Primary address(1F0H).
      If S is set, port address will be set at Secondary address(170H).
      Default is Primary.

    /S:<M|S>
      Gives Master or Slave for CD-ROM Drive . 

    /T
      Support 2 Drives (Same CMD_DRQ_Type) .

   Example:
              DEVICE = C:\CDROM\SJCDAPI.SYS /D:MSCD000 /P:P /S:S

      where:  /D:MSCD000     Identifies the drive name as MSCD000.
              /P:P           Port is Primary.
              /S:S           Slave.

3.The parameters of MSCDEX.EXE

  Here you a list of the value of all parameters for entering the device
  driver in the file AUTOEXEC.BAT. These parameters should only be used by
  those of you who already have good experience with computers. Wrong entries
  can cause malfunctions and even damage!
  
  The general form of the control line for entering the device driver in the
  file AUTOEXEC.BAT is:
     [Path]MSCDEX  /D:Device_name [/E /L:drive_letter /K /S /M:value /V]
     Note : The entries in square brakets are not always necessary. 

  The  parameters have following significance:

   /D:Device name
      Tells MSCDEX.EXE where to find the device driver.

   /E
      Tells MSCDEX.EXE to use expanded memory if your system 
      is using expanded memory.
      (This switch requires LIM3.2 or greater)
      
   /L:(drive letter)
      MSCDEX.EXE starts at the drive letter specified by this switch.

   /K
      Tells MSCDEX.EXE to use any Kanji (Japanese) file structures,if present,
      rather than the default of standard alphanumeric file structures.

   /S
      Instructs MSCDEX.EXE to patch DOS to allow sharing of CD-ROM drives 
      on MS-NET based network servers.

   /M:(value)
      Tells MSCDEX.EXE how much memory to allocate for caching information
      on the CD-ROM.

   /V
      Provides memory usage statistics, such as how much memory is used
      by buffers, resident data, resident code.

   Example:
	      MSCDEX.EXE /D:MSCD000 /M:4 /L:E

      where:  /D:MSCD000     identifies the drive name as MSCD000.
              /M:4           Memory caching is set for 8 kilobytes.
              /L:E           the CD-ROM drive letter is E.

      When these modifications are completed, it will be necessary to reboot
      your system (by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del). This will reconfigure your system
      based on the modified AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files.

4. If you use under WINDOWS, modify the SYSTEM.INI file as follows.
   
   In [386Enh] section
     32bitdiskaccess=off  (default:off)

How To Update Drivers Manually

After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.

  • Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).

  • If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.

  • Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.

  • Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.

  • Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.

  • From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.

  • Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.

Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
