HOW TO PLAY THE AUDIO CD
Windows 3.1
The CD-Audio CDs can be played on your PCMCIA CD-ROM by using CD Audio software utilities, such
as the Media Player in Windows 3.1. To use Media Player, you must have the [MCI] CD Audio driver
installed. Make sure the CD-Audio disc is install in the CD-ROM drive. The CD Audio driver is installed
through the Control Panel. Go into the Drivers and ADD [MCI] CD Audio. The installation will require
one of the Windows diskette to install the driver.
The driver is MCICDA.DRV. This should be in the System directory.
The system.ini should then have the driver listed in the section
[mci]
CDAudio=mcicda.drv
The mplayer.ini should have:
[Options]
CDAudio=62
[Devices]
CDAudio=2553, CD Audio
Start Media Player program, Click on Device then pull-down to select the CD-Audio.
You should then be able to use the CD-ROM drive to player your audio CD's.

Click on Start button => Programs => Accessories => Multimedia then click on the CD Player Icon.
If you do not have the Accessories Group or Multimedia Group, the options may not install during
Windows 95 set up.
Click the Start button go to Setting => Control Panel click on Add/Remove
Programs then Windows Setup Tab. Place check mark on the box for missing programs and
Windows 95 setup will install it for you.
CD-Audio Sound Output
The sound output will come out from the CD-ROM drive (not the Sound Module) output jacks. There are
two sources:
1. Stereo headphone jack in the front.
2. Line out Jack
in the back.
To play the CD-Audio through the Sound module, you may using a ‘stereo patch cable’ (not included)
connect between the Line out jack and the Stereo Line-in jack of the sound module. See drawings for
Rear Panel (page 3 or 5) and Sound Module (page 6) for the jacks locations.
