This software package is for the installation of the IBM ATAPI PD/CD-ROM
device drivers under DOS/Windows 3.1. This package consists of the
following seven files.

ATAPIDV.SYS
MSDRVR.SYS
MCDATAPD.SYS
PDFORM.EXE    (Format utility for PD cartridge - SFD format)
PDFDISK.EXE   (Format utility for PD cartridge - FDISK FAT format)

                        INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
=========================================================================

1. Copy the files listed above onto your system root directory (C:\).

2. Add or modify the following four lines in your CONFIG.SYS.

   DEVICE=C:\ATAPIDV.SYS

   DEVICE=C:\MSDRVR.SYS -OT3 -L

   DEVICE=C:\MCDATAPD.SYS /D:PD_CD /T3 /L

   LASTDRIVE=Z


3. Add or modify the following statement in your AUTOEXEC.BAT.

   C:\DOS\MSCDEX.EXE /D:PD_CD /M:10 /E


   Notes: 1) " /E" in the above statement should only be used if your system
             has expanded memory.

          2) If Kanji support is required, add a " /K" to the above statement.


4. Reboot your system.

The driver installation is now complete. There will be two drive letters
assigned to your PD/CD-ROM. The first drive letter will represent the PD drive
function and the second drive letter will represent the CD-ROM drive function.
Typically the D: drive is the PD and the E: drive is the CD-ROM.
