MANUAL INSTALLATION

You may manually install the HD TRAVELER device driver if the default
setting conflicts with your system. Try the following procedure to complete
the manual installation.

1) Copy the file named EXPHDG.EXE to a directory on your main hard

disk. ( i.e. C:\PCMHD).

2) Edit the config.sys add the following line at the end of the file.

DEVICE=[drive] [path] EXPHDG.EXE /P:320 [/G]

/P

is used to set

the I/O ports, and the valid numbers are 320, 340 and

360. Each number represents the I/O port address - 320-32F, 340-
34F, and 360-36F respectively.

The default setting is

/P:320

/G

Add this to the end of the line, if you want to enable game port

The config.sys file example

LASTDRIVE=Z

DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS

DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE NOEMS X=D000-D3FF

FILES=40

BUFFERS=20

STACKS=9,256

DEVICE=C:\PCMHD\EXPHDG.EXE /P:320 /G

If you use the memory manager just like the example above (EMM386.exe).
You need to exclude the memory range for the hard disk card and X=D000-
D3FF is recommended.

3.) Reboot the system so the new driver will take effect.

NOTE:

The EXPHDG.EXE also has a command line parameter:

/I - Initialize a hard disk

All the information on the hard disk will be deleted.

EXAMPLE: EXPHDG /I
