INSTALL version 1.00
===============================
DOS 3.21 - 5.X
1. As with all FLOPTICAL devices, DOS DISKCOPY and DISKCOMP will
not function correctly with 21MB FLOPTICAL diskettes. Your
installation software has provided new utilities to replace
the DOS versions. Use these new utilities as complete
replacements for the DOS versions.
===============================
WINDOWS 3.X
1. Norton Desktop for Windows will not format 21MB
FLOPTICAL diskettes.
2. Do not use WINDOWS FILE MANAGER to copy 21MB FLOPTICAL
diskettes. Use the supplied DISKCOPY.EXE after exiting
Windows.
===============================
Memory Managers
1. Re-run optimization programs after installing the FLOPTICAL
adapter.
2. It may be necessary to disable memory management software
such as 386MAX and QEMM before installing the adapter.
After installing the adapter, you may need to re-install
the memory manager.
===============================
FFORMAT.EXE (IOMEGA format utility)
1. Do not use FFORMAT to format hard disks, use DOS FORMAT.COM.
FFORMAT may fail on hard disks.
==============================
SCPLUS (SPEED CACHE PLUS)
1. As with all floppy drives, do not remove diskettes from the
FLOPTICAL drive when the drive activity light is on. Doing so
may result in loss of data.
2. SCPLUS USE WITH SECURITY SYSTEMS - Security systems (e.g.,
Watchdog) require all caches to NOT do write-delay caching.
Therefore, the default SCPLUS settings will have to be modified
to work with security systems. Consult the SCMANUAL.DOC
file for complete instructions regarding the setup of SCPLUS.
3. SCPLUS DEFAULT SETTING - The SCPLUS default setting is the
INSTALL option. This option allows the cache to use all
available expanded or extended memory. If less memory usage
is desired the EXP=xxx or EXT=xxx options can be used. Consult
the SCMANUAL.DOC file for complete instructions regarding
the setup of SCPLUS.
4. SMARTDRIVE REMOVAL DURING INSTALLATION SCPLUS - INSTALL
automatically removes SMARTDRV.EXE from your AUTOEXEC.BAT file
during the installation process.
5. SpeedCache Plus may not be able to trap <Ctrl Alt Del> and
prevent a warm boot during certain applications. Be sure all
disk accesses have been completed before rebooting. This means
you should wait longer than the DELAY value set in SpeedCache
Plus (default = 1 second).
6. Norton Desktop for Windows corrupts the upper memory blocks,
disable the cache to run Norton desktop for windows.
==============================
BACKUP UTILITIES
1. Be sure to DOS FORMAT all diskettes that will be used for backup
before running any BACKUP UTILITY.
2. Do not run BACKUP UTILITIES from DOS or WINDOWS with SPEED
CACHE PLUS enabled.
==============================
HARDWARE DEPENDENT UTILITIES (i.e. STACKER COMPRESSION, etc.)
1. Under DOS 3.21-4.X, the drive letter assigned to your hard
disk may change depending on your configuration (see
Owners Manual). Some types of software may require a specific
drive letter. This may require the user to un-install the
software, then install the FLOPTICAL, and then re-install the
software. A second possibility would be to disable one of the
host computer's floppy drives so that there is no change to
the hard disk drive's assigned letter.
