Windows98, SE

When you plug your device into the USB2.0 controller, the OS should

determine a new device has been plugged in and will bring up the new hardware

wizard window. From here you will need to specify the location of the driver

and then browse to the location where you have the drivers saved.

If the drivers are in a floppy diskette, you will need to point the wizard to the

floppy drive to locate and install the driver. Once the driver is loaded, there

should now be a new CD_ROM icon under My Computer if an ATAPI device is

installed. If you installed a hard drive that has already been partitioned, then you

will see a new hard drive icon instead. If you installed a hard drive that has not

been partitioned, e.g., a brand new hard drive, you will not see a new icon. In

this case, you must partition and format the drive as described below before you

will be able to see the new hard drive icon and be able to access the drive."

Note: brand new harddrives must be partitioned and formatted first.

Windows Me, 2000 or XP

The external USB2.0 drive is plug and play under these operating systems.

Drivers are built in on the OS. USB mass storage driver from the system files

loads automatically for the device.

NOTE: Install and run your software to support the Optical drives

installed in the External USB2.0 case. Check with the manufacturer for

more info.

(CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, CDRW, DVD/CDRW, DVD-/+RW are classified as
