-
- The INSTALL4.EXE utility can detect the speeds of the hard disks
- which are attached on the controller automatically and it also can
- install drivers for you. Please follow the steps below to excute
- this program first.
-
- I. Insert this diskette in a floppy disk drive, and close the
- drive door.
-
- II. At the command prompt, type the drive letter of the drive
- you are using, followed by a colon(:), and then press ENTER.
-
- III. Type INSTALL4, and then press ENTER.
-
- IV. Follow the instructions on the screen to detect hard disk(s)
- speed and install driver(s).
-
- This program may get an incorrect speed in some few cases. At
- that time, please install the drivers manually to reduce the
- drive speed step by step until the system boots or becomes stable.
- Please remember the current speed and minus 2 if the FIFO is enabled,
- or minus 4 if FIFO is disabled. At this way, it will work out the
- optimized performance of your system. If it is possible, please
- burn-in your system with IDE operations to make sure the stability
- of your system.

- └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
-
- The INSTALL4.EXE utility can install DOS device driver automatically.
- If you want to install DOS device driver manually or change the drive
- speed, please follow the steps below.
-
- I. Copy the DOS\UM8673.SYS into the appropriate path.
-
- II. Add following statement to your CONFIG.SYS file to auto load the
- driver during bootup.
-
- device=[drive:][\path\]UM8673.SYS[/D<n:m>][/F<n>][/NF<n>][/Cyl<n:m>][/Hd<n:m>][/Sec<n:m>][/SIRQ:<m>]
-
- where
-
- D<n:m> Drive n speed m(0-17) ( 0 the lowest )
- Cyl<n:m> Drive n(2-3) cylinder number m
- Hd<n:m> Drive n(2-3) head number m
- Sec<n:m> Drive n(2-3) sector number m
- F<n> Enable FIFO for drive n
- NF<n> Disable FIFO for drive n
- SIRQ:<m> Secondary channel IRQ (10 or 12 or 15)
-
-
- For instance, the user wants to load UM8673.SYS with drive 0
- speed = 6 and FIFO enabled. The DOS driver resides in the root
- directory of the drive C:. Add the following statement to your
- CONFIG.SYS file.
-
- DEVICE = C:\UM8673.SYS /D0:6 /F0
-
- You don't need to specify drive speed parameters usually, because
- the device driver is reconfigured for the optimal speed setting.
-
- III. Reboot your system.

- └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
-
- The INSTALL4.EXE utility can install Windows device driver automatically.
- If you want to install Windows device driver for your system manually
- or change the drive speed, please follow the steps below.
-
- I. Copy the Windows\UM8673.386 and Windows\INT13.386 into the
- appropriate path.
-
- II. Check if the following lines exist in the [386Enh] section
- of your SYSTEM.INI file.
-
- [386Enh]
- 32BitDiskAccess=ON
- device=*int13
- device=*wdctrl
-
- If any statement does not exist, please add it to the [386Enh]
- section. Please add a preceding semi-colon in front of
- "device=*wdctrl" and "device=*int13" command lines. If
- "32BitDiskAccess" option is set to be "OFF", Please change
- it to be "ON".
-
- III. Add these following statements to the [386Enh] section in your
- \WINDOWS\SYSTEM.INI file.
-
- device = [drive:][\path\] UM8673.386
- device = [drive:][\path\] INT13.386
- DriveSpeed = [/D<n:m>][/F<n>][/NF<n>]
-
- where
-
- D<n:m> Drive n speed m(0-17) ( 0 the lowest )
- F<n> Enable FIFO for drive n
- NF<n> Disable FIFO for drive n
-
-
- For instance, the user wants to load Windows drivers with drive 1
- speed = 11 and FIFO disabled. The Windows drivers reside in
- the WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory of the drive C:. Add the following
- statements to your SYSTEM.INI file.
-
- [386Enh]
- 32BitDiskAccess=ON
- ;device=*int13
- ;device=*wdctrl
- DriveSpeed = /D1:11 /NF1
- device = c:\windows\system\UM8673.386
- device = c:\windows\system\INT13.386
-
- You don't need to specify drive speed parameters usually, because
- the device driver is reconfigured for the optimal speed setting.
-
- IV. Reenter your Windows.

- (FIFO enabled) which are attached on Adapter 0. Add the
- following statement to your CONFIG.SYS file.
-
- BaseDev = UMC1S506.ADD /A:0 /U:0 /S:6 /NF /U:1 /S:11 /F
