Changes:
----------
1.53 New feature DisWT bit ("Immediate read"). If set, this option forces
the drive to immediately start reading. Normally, it waits until the
chosen speed is reached. Only for PX-20 and newer.
Online help
1.50 Added audio playback and audio dump features
Fixes:
* Changed CD-ROM Manager/2 icon
* Fixed problems with more than one SCSI adapter
* Fixed a memory leak (medium TOC list)
* Fixed a bug in the driver (new version 1.01) that could
cause CD-ROM Manager/2 to stop responding or to not
terminate properly
Note:
CD-ROM Manager/2 Version 1.50 will NOT work with the old driver!!
* Window border is now resizable (needed on VGA and 800x600 displays)
1.03 Fixed another problem with drive selection dialog (should really
work now...), some UI bugs and
a bug with the Medium Rescan button
1.02 Minor UI bugs; fixed a problem with drive selection dialog
1.01 Fixed minor UI bugs
1.00 First public release
NOTE:
-------
If you are upgrading from a previous version of CD-ROM Manager/2, please do not
forget to replace the old driver (cdmgrdrv.sys) with the one included in this
package (driver version 1.01). The old driver does not work with version 1.50
of CD-ROM Manager/2.
General
-------
CD-ROM Manager/2 is a program that allows you to adjust certain operating
parameters of Plextor (R) CD-ROM drives.
Supported drives
----------------
CD-ROM Manager/2 has been developed and tested with a Plextor PX-12 TSi
drive; the following models should also work:
PX-43CH
PX-45CH
PX-43CS
PX-45CS
PX-43CE
PX-45CE
PX-63CS
PX-65CS
PX-83CS
PX-85CS
PX-12CSi
PX-12CSe
PX-12TSe
PX-12TSi
PX-20TSi
PX-20TSe
PX-32TSi
PX-32TSe
PX-32CSi
PX-32CSe
PX-40TSx
CD-ROM Manager/2 verifies the SCSI id strings of the drives installed on
the system. If a drive is found that is unkown but seems to be a Plextor
CD-ROM drive, it is assumed to be a PX-32.
CD-ROM Manager/2 has been verified to work with the following SCSI adapters:
NCR / Symbios 53C810
Adaptec 2940
Generally, every adapter with OS/2 driver support should work.
Installation
------------
This is simple:
- Create a directory for CD-ROM Manager/2
- Unzip the downloaded file to this directory
- Optionally, you can create a program object for cdmgr.exe
- If you want to use the online help (version 1.53 and up),
you must either copy the help file (cdmgre.hlp) to a directory
that is in the HELP path (i.e. \OS2\HELP) or change the HELP path
(in config.sys) so that it contains the directory of the help file.
- Check if there's a call to OS2ASPI.DMD in your CONFIG.SYS file.
If not, add the line
BASEDEV=OS2ASPI.DMD /ALL
to your CONFIG.SYS. If it's already there, check if the /ALL switch
has been set. If not, add it.
If the /SHARE flag is set, it is strongly recommended to remove it!
- Add the following line to your CONFIG.SYS file:
DEVICE=[path_to_installation_directory]\cdmgrdrv.sys
- and reboot.
Watch out for the line
CD-ROM Manager/2 ASPI Interface - Version x.xx
during system startup. If it appears, everything should work.
