Agate Tioman for HP v3.10

INSTALLATION

* Insert the Tioman installation diskette into the floppy disk drive.
* Move the cursor to the Start button, press on the mouse button and select the 
Run menu item.
* Type 'A:\SETUP' and click on OK or press the Enter key.
* The setup wizard will guide you through the rest of the installation process.
* Tioman will become active the next time Windows 95 is started.

The installation program will copy the required device drivers. Tioman will 
automatically be loaded whenever the system is started, and will place an icon 
in the right hand corner of the taskbar.

USING TIOMAN

You will notice that once Tioman is installed on your system, a small icon will 
be displayed in the lower right hand corner of the taskbar whenever the computer 
is running. This taskbar icon is your gateway into the capabilities of Tioman.

The icon will give a visual cue for the currently inserted device. You will 
immediately notice whether you currently have a floppy or CD-ROM drive, or even 
no device in the bay. Hovering over the icon will also display information on 
your currently inserted drive.

Clicking on the icon will display the Tioman menu. This offers menu items for 
swapping devices, getting help, as well as more information on the Tioman 
software.

NOTES

* Windows 98 is currently supported.
* Do not install the software on a Windows NT system.
* Always make sure the power is off to the device you are removing before 
physically removing it.

KNOWN PROBLEMS

* Sometimes you must select 'Both Primary and Secondary enabled' for the IDE 
controller settings. Otherwise you will see failures to detect devices when 
inserted.
* If you cancel an uninstall, the taskbar icon is removed. You must restart your 
system to reenable the icon.
* You may experience device detection problems when docking or undocking your 
notebook.
* Changing diskette media during power suspend is not detected by Windows. 
Tioman's detection of diskette drives causes the loss of the media change 
indication. In these cases the contents of the previous diskette will still be 
displayed. You can force the system to recognize the new diskette by ejecting 
and reinserting the diskette media.
* Certain applications that open files on a swappable device may not be detected 
when selecting Swap Device. You may experience errors or even system crashes if 
you remove a device in this case. Please make sure that all applications and 
windows are closed for a device you wish to remove.
* We recommend that you immediately remove a device after performing a Remove 
Device command. Changing from one device to another device while the system is 
suspended (Warm Swapping) is supported but some devices such as the LS120 are 
not supported in this release. We recommend Hot Swapping whenever possible.
* Swapping of INT13 devices is not supported. If you boot the system with a hard 
disk in the bay, your BIOS will detect the drive and Windows 95 will configure 
it as an INT13 hard disk drive. To avoid this, enter your BIOS setup and change 
the setting for Secondary Master from Auto detection to None. Once Windows is 
running, you can turn off the INT13 setting for the hard disk drive in Device 
Manager using the System icon under Control Panel. This procedure may also apply 
to the LS120.
