Appendix A Troubleshooting IBM- PC DOS / WINDOWS Installation CDR101 Not ready reading drive D This means the drive has failed to read the disc. 1. Verify that discs are in the player label side down. Also check to make sure the discs are not seriously scratched and that they do not have a lot of finger prints on them. If the discs have finger prints on them, they can be cleaned by drawing a soft cloth from the center hole to the edge of the disc; never use a circular motion. Excessive scratches may make the disc unreadable. 2. Make sure that the MSCDEX is loading into the Autoexec.Bat properly. It should be loading first, and it should not be REMARKed out. 3. Make sure that the MSCDEX label in the Config.Sys matches the label in the Autoexec.Bat. It often reads /D:MSCD000 or /D:MSCD001. 4. Reboot the computer and look for more error messages on boot up. Use the PAUSE key to stop the screen and any key to continue. Look for details regarding specific errors in this Appendix. 5. Look carefully at the Inquiry ID=0 line on boot-up. Make sure you see the Pioneer DRM model number and the four-digit ROM version number at the end of the line. If you do not see the model number and the ROM version number, you probably have trouble on the SCSI bus. Check to make sure that all cables are securely attached. Also check termination. The last unit on the SCSI chain should be terminated and units in the middle of the chain should not be terminated. See Hardware Instructions for information on termination for specific Changers. Also, use the correct SCSI cable for the specific SCSI interface card installed. 6. Try accessing different discs. If the changer is still not reading the discs, it is possible it is having a mechanical problem. Refer to TB #168 and see instructions for running a Self-Test. Also refer to TB #169 for instructions on running the Audio Play Test. These two tests can be used to check the mechanical functioning of the unit.

Make sure you
see the Pioneer DRM model number and the four-digit ROM version
number at the end of the line.
If you do not see the model number and the
ROM version number, you probably have trouble on the SCSI bus. Check to
make sure that all cables are securely attached.
Also check termination.
The last unit on the SCSI chain should be terminated and units in the
middle of the chain should not be terminated. See
Hardware Instructions
for
information on termination for specific Changers. Also, use the correct SCSI
cable for the specific SCSI interface card installed.
