Expanding the OmniBook Connecting Devices To set up a PC card or parallel port CD-ROM drive The general steps for setting up a PC card CD-ROM drive are as follows: 1. Copy the device drivers-from the installation software provided with the CD-ROM drive-to the Support Utility disk into the A:\tools directory. 2. Add the device=driver statements to the CONFIG.SYS file on the Support Utility disk. The device statements should immediately follow the [USERCD] label. 3. Check the AUTOEXEC.BAT file to make sure that the CD-ROM drive is assigned as drive G:. Before the OmniBook can recognize the CD-ROM drive, you'll need to edit the CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files on the Support Utility disk. The required device-drivers statements come from the CD-ROM manufacturer. What you'll need from your CD-ROM manufacturer 1. The names of the device drivers to copy to the Support Utility disk. 2. The device=drivers statements to add the CONFIG.SYS file. 3. Statements that the CD-ROM drive may need to add to the AUTOEXEC.BAT file. Hint Both the CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files contain comments that should help your CD-ROM manufacturer advise you in editing the files to meet the particular requirements for your device 3-15
