Connect a Sound Cable to your Drive
If you have a sound card and speakers and would like to play audio CDs through your
computer, you will need to get a sound cable from your supplier. Each sound card
requires a different cable, so you will need to tell your supplier which sound card you
have and that you have a Toshiba XM-6201B CD-ROM drive. Your supplier should be
able to supply you with a suitable inexpensive cable.
The sound cable connects to your sound card at one end and to the audio connector at the
rear left of the drive at the other. You will need to refer to the instructions which
accompanied your sound card for details of any sound-driver software required.
Replace the Computer's Case
You can now push the drive all the way into the slot and, if necessary, fix it in place with
screws on either side. Replace the computer's cover and replace all of the fixing screws.
CD-ROM Driver Software
DOS and Windows 3.x
Your SCSI interface card should have been supplied with additional driver software for a
range of SCSI devices, including CD-ROM drives. Some computers are supplied with a
SCSI interface card already fitted. If this is the case, the SCSI driver software may be in
a directory called \SCSI (or similar) on your hard disk, or the software may be on a
floppy disk supplied with your computer.
Locate the driver software and follow its instructions for adding driver software to
support a CD-ROM drive.
32 bit Operating Systems
Windows 95, Windows NT and OS/2 all include drivers for a wide range of SCSI
devices. To make your Toshiba XM-6201 work with these operating systems you should
refer to your operating system's user guide for details of adding SCSI devices.
Care and Use of Your CD-ROM Drive
Most aspects of caring for your CD-ROM drive are simple matters of common sense.
However, here is a list of points to remember:
Do not expose your CD-ROM drive to extreme temperatures, excessive dust or
high humidity
Do not install your CD-ROM drive near any device that produces strong
electrical waves or magnetic fields
