Customizing Device Driver Configuration:
This section contains optional device driver configuration information for DOS with Windows, OS/2, and
Windows 95. Use the online help during the installation and refer to the READ.ME file on the IBM 32X-14X
Internal IDE CD-ROM Drive Option Diskette for additional information.
DOS with Windows Software:
User requirements vary, and you might need to customize the setup which CDSETUP has installed on your
computer. This section provides information and describes parameters that you might need to change or add
for your installation.
Device Driver (IBMIDECD.SYS):
Most computers will function adequately with the default settings for this file. However, there are some
parameters that can be changed if necessary. This section explains the function of each parameter. Use a
text editor to modify the appropriate line in your CONFIG.SYS file. For the IBMIDECD.SYS device driver, the
line in CONFIG.SYS is in the following format:
Do not truncate the actual device driver entry. Place the complete DEVICE= on one line in the CONFIG.SYS
file.
The above parameter specifies the location (drive and directory) and name of the device driver file. Use the
following options to configure the device driver.
/D:device name specifies the device name of the CD-ROM drive. This must be identical to the device name
specified in the MSCDEX.EXE parameters, for example:
/P:xxx,yy specifies the address and interrupt level of the port to which the IDE CD-ROM drive is connected.
The device driver automatically checks the industry standard primary IDE port (address 1F0, interrupt 14) and
secondary IDE port (address 170, interrupt 15). The /P parameter is not needed if your CD-ROM drive is on
either of these ports.
