- CD-ROM INSTALLATION LATEST INFORMATION
- ======================================
-
- This file contains information not available during the printing of
- the manual. Please read it's contents before you proceed with any
- installation procedure.
-
-
- This file contains the following sections :
-
- 1. QuickCD
- 2. I/O port address
-
-
- 1. QUICKCD
-
- The QuickCD application plays audio CDs in DOS and Windows. The
- mixer button in the Windows QuickCD will not be supported if you
- do not have a Sound Blaster Pro or Sound Blaster 16.
-
-
- 2. I/O PORT ADDRESS
-
- When you connect your audio card to the drive, you need to
- define the port that your card's IDE interface uses. There
- are four IDE ports from which you can select: Primary,
- Secondary, Tertiary and Quaternary.
- These ports are industry standards for the combination of
- I/O addresses and IRQ line used by your IDE interface
- (see Table 1-1).
-
- Table 1-1: Standard settings for the respective IDE ports.
-
- IDE Port IRQ Lines I/O Addresses Used
-
- Primary 14 1F0H to 1F7H, 3F6H to 3F7H
- Secondary (Default) 15 170H to 177H, 376H to 377H
- Tertiary 11 or 12 1E8H to 1EFH
- Quaternary 10 or 11 168H to 16FH
-
- The names of these IDE ports do not indicate any kind of sequence
- for adding IDE devices. Also, you can only connect two IDE devices
- to each IDE port in a system. These devices will use the same I/O
- addresses and IRQ line.
-
- The primary port should be used only if the IDE device is connected
- to the hard disk controller card.
