Flash'n'Play Version 1.3
================================================================================
To upgrade your Philips CDD3610 IDE/ATAPI CD-Recordable/ReWritabel drive,
please follow the following instructions:
1. Create a bootable floppy. This can be done under Windows95 or NT as follows:
- Double click the MyComputer Icon
- Click on the floppy drive's icon in explorer with the RIGHT mouse button
- A menu will pop up. Select the 'FORMAT...' option
- In the 'OTHER OPTIONS' section select the 'COPY SYSTEM FILES' option
- Press the 'START' button
2. Copy ALL files included in this ZIP file to the bootable floppy.
3. Keep the floppy in your drive and restart the system.
4. The system will start up using the floppy.
5. The Flash'n'Play application will automatically start.
6. Follow the instructions given.
================================================================================
Trouble shooting:
================================================================================
If the flash application fails to locate your recorder please try the following:
1) Tertiary Ports
Standerd computers have 2 IDE ports. If your system has a third IDE port (such as
on a sound card) then you may have to specify the exact interupt and IO address of
that port.
To select settings for the tertiary port replace the line:
ATAFLASH.EXE
in the autoexec.bat file found on the boot floppy with the following line:
ATAFLASH pXXX iXX
where pXXX specifies a hexadecimal port address,and iXX specifies a decimal port
interrupt.
Example:
ATAFLASH p168 i10 for tertiary port at address 168(h) and interrupt 10.
2) Hardware conflicts
If your drive is the only device on the IDE bus then it is possible that it will
not be found by the application. In that case you can try one of the following:
- Connect a second IDE device to that bus.
- Connect the drive temporarily to the other bus with a device already on it.
- Flash the drive on a different computer
- Use a different IDE cable to connect the drive.
Always make sure you have properly configured the devices as master and slave.
Please read your manual for more information about master/slave configuration.
