This file describes the process for installing the
BETA1 Windows95 protected mode CM-207 CDROM device driver.

THIS DRIVER HAS NOT BEEN FULLY TESTED! USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!

This driver acts as a replacement for the generic 
ATAPI driver developed by Microsoft which is not 
fully compatible with the CM-207. The only change 
this driver makes is to correct the problem that 
mutes CD audio playback. If you do not plan on using 
this feature, you do not need to install this driver.


***IMPORTANT***

The installation procedure described below assumes
the following:

1). Windows95 is fully installed and running properly on your system.
2). The CM-207 hardware installation is complete.
3). You are using an IDE hard drive as your boot device. If your boot 
drive is anything other than an IDE device, you will see only one
IDE/ESDI entry in the hard disk controllers section. This entry is
the one you should disable.




To install the driver;


1). Go to the Windows95 "Control Panel".

2). Run the "System" utility.

3). Select the "Device Manager" page.

4). Expand the "Hard disk controllers" entry by clicking on the
"+" sign in the box to the left of the entry. This should expand 
the entry to show two identical sub-entries called "Standard IDE/ESDI 
Hard Disk Controller".

5). Double click on the second entry to bring up the "Hard disk 
controller properties" window.

6). Select the "General" page.

7). UNCHECK the "Original Configuration (Current)" check box in 
the "Device usage" section. The check mark must be cleared from 
the check box.

8). Click on "OK" and "OK" again at the "System Properties" window.

9). Run the "Add New Hardware" utility.

10). Select "Next".

11). When asked if you would like Windows95 to search for your new 
hardware, select "NO" and then "Next".

12). Double click on "CDROM Controllers" and select "Have Disk".

13). Choose the path to the driver files and select "OK".

14). Double click on the "Philips CM-207 CDROM Controller" entry.

15). Click on "Next" in the "Resource Type/Setting" window.

16). Select "Finish".

17). When asked if you would like to shut down your system, choose
"Yes" and reboot the system.

The Windows95 CM-207 CDROM device driver should now be installed on 
your system. If you experience problems using or installing this 
driver, fill out the included BETARESP.TXT response form and fax it 
in to the number on the form.
