Before running the software to swap or remove the
current Flexible Bay device, be sure to close all the
other applications that could be using the current bay
device.
If you swapped or inserted your Flexible Bay device
with My Computer or Windows Explorer opened,
click View, and then click Refresh.
The Copy Disk utility for the built-in SuperDisk
cannot be used if BayManager is installed. To work
around this limitation, perform the following steps:
(Note that in order to copy SuperDisk media, your
memory size must be greater than the size of the
SuperDisk media.)
Create an empty folder on your C: drive to which
you will copy the files.
Open the SuperDisk files using My Computer or
Windows Explorer.
Click Edit/Select All.
Copy all the files to the newly-created folder.
Swap the disk with an empty formatted disk.
Copy all the files from the new folder to the
empty disk.
If you have BayManager installed in your LifeBook,
and insert a SuperDisk into its drive on the Flexible
Bay, the disk will indicate Removable Disk on the
screen; this phenomenon does not affect your opera-
tions adversely.
If you are running Adaptec Easy CD Creator, and
want to swap or remove the current multi-bay device,
close Adaptec Easy CD Creator, wait for about 30
seconds, then do the swapping or removal.
After you swap or insert your Flexible Bay device, the
CD-ROM or DVD Autorun might stop. To work
around this problem, go to My Computer and double-
click the icon for CD-ROM or DVD drive.
If a LifeBook with a USB FDD connected is put on
Standby, the drive letter for the FDD might change
(from A) after the computer is brought out of the
power saving state. This phenomenon does not affect
operations adversely.

If Windows is started on a LifeBook with an external
USB FDD connected, an icon for the FDD might not
appear in My Computer or Windows Explorer. If you
encounter this problem, remove the FDD from your
computer, then reconnect it.
Wait about 30 seconds after Windows 98 Second
Edition boots up or resumes from Standby/Hiberna-
tion before using BayManager.
If the FDD (A:) is not shown in My Computer or
Windows Explorer even if the FDD is connected,
please execute [Insert] by using BayManager.
If you remove a CD-RW drive, you may hear a noise;
this phenomenon does not affect your operations
adversely.
If you have BayManager installed in your computer,
and want to use an ATA Flash or similar PC Card, do
the following:
1. In the Control Panel window, double-click the
System icon.
2. From the Device Manager tab, select Computer,
then click Properties.
3. From the Reserve Resources tab, click Input/
Output (I/O).
4. Click Add.
5. Type 170 in the Start Value box, and 177 in the
End Value box. Click OK.
6. Click OK in the Computer Properties window.
7. Click OK in the System Properties window.
If you have BayManager installed in your computer,
and want to use a USB Audio device (e.g., USB
speakers), disconnect the USB Audio before you insert
a PCMCIA card.
