TROUBLE SHOOTING

This section explains the most common error messages that
DOS/Windows users may experience.

After rebooting your computer, the following messages will be displayed
on your screen, which are generated by EXPCDI.EXE and
MSCDEX.EXE.

Configure card to:

I/O Port:170-177, 376-377

IRQ number: 15

Device Name: MSCD001

PCMCIA CD-ROM card is present in socket 1

.

.

.

Drive D: = Driver MSCD001 unit 0

If any error occurs or the PCMCIA CD-ROM does not work, you should
reboot your computer again. When the system displays 'Starting MS-
DOS...', press the F8 key to make the system executes the
CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT step by step, so that you can
consistently press the ‘Y’ key to see each command's message.

Error messages generated by EXPCDI.EXE:

v Error: PCMCIA CD-ROM card is not present!

If the above message appears, it means EXPCDI can't find any PCMCIA
CD-ROM card in your PCMCIA slots. Make sure the card is inserted
firmly.
v Error: Illegal arguments!

For help, type "EXPCDI /?".

The above error message means that there are invalid arguments in the
EXPCDI line of CONFIG.SYS. Please refer to the section titled
“MANUAL INSTALLATION” for the usage of EXPCDI.EXE.
v Error: I/O port and IRQ number must be specified!

The above message means you have not specified the I/O port and IRQ
number argument in the EXPCDI line of CONFIG.SYS.
