Using the Drive Upgrading the Firmware Flash Memory The product firmware can be upgraded by downloading the updated file from the following Web site: http://samsung-ODD.com http://samsung.com System Requirements Before you install the CD-ROM drive, we strongly recommend that you check that your setup meets the system requirements listed below. Item Description Type of computer Intel Pentium II 166MHz(or higher), 16 MB of RAM (or higher) with an IDE interface Free expansion unit 5.25 inch Disk space 100MB minimum MS-DOS version 5.0(or higher) Windows version Windows 95 / 98 / 2000 / ME / XP Windows NT 4.0 (or higher) Troubleshooting Problem Meaning / Solution The CD-ROM drive is not detected by the computer. Check that the power, audio and IDE cables are correctly connected to the computer. After installing the CD-ROM drive, the PC gets slower. Change the IDE cable and reconnect it to the computer. Preferably, connect a second IDE cable to the CD-ROM drive in master mode. Check the position of the jumper in the master/slave select terminal. The CD-ROM drive is not recognized by MS-DOS. Reinstall the device driver or update it with the latest version by downloading it from the Samsung Web site. - http://samsung-ODD.com - http://samsung.com The CD-ROM drive is not detected by Windows. This case may occur when there is a Windows installation problem; reinstall Windows. No sound is heard from an audio CD. Check whether the audio cable is correctly connected to the sound output terminal on the CD-ROM drive and the sound card CD-IN terminal. Check that the sound card is operational. Adjust the volume control. Run the CD player supplied with Windows or your sound card. You can listen to the CD by connecting headphones to the appropriate connector. If you have installed the appropriate player, such as Microsoft Windows Media Player, you can adjust the volume using the headphone volume control on the drive front panel. If you select DIGITAL at CD Audio Play in Media Player of Windows ME/XP, the earphone does not appear in the Digital Mode. A CD is not read or is read too slowly. Check whether the CD is of good quality and clean it, if necessary. The disc compartment will not open. Check that the power cable is correctly connected. Power off and disconnect the PC. Insert a pin or unfolded paper clip in the emergency hole and push firmly until the disc compartment opens. When the MPEG software plays a Video CD, the pictures are not regular and the running speed is too slow. Adjust the size of the replay screen. The Disc is not in message is displayed even though a disc has been inserted. The computer may not recognize the disc if you start playback too quickly after inserting the disc. Open and close the disc compartment and try again. After checking the display resolution, adjust it, if necessary. Clean the disc and try again. The CD-ROM drive is not detected after it is connected to a sound card. The interface mode of the sound card is AT-BUS. You must therefore connect the CD-ROM drive to the IDE port on the PC mother board, rather than to the sound card, or install an IDE compatible sound card.
