You don’t need to install anything else. The computer’s operating system, whether it is Windows XP, Windows Me, Windows 98, Windows 95, Windows 2000 or Windows XP supplies a generic CD-ROM device driver that will allow your CD-ReWriter to function as a standard CD-ROM drive. If you don’t, or the entry is accompanied by a yellow exclamation point or red X, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for installing driver support from the floppy disk or CD-ROM media that was provided with the host adapter card. You should see an entry for your host adapter under SCSI Controllers. For Windows XP, right-click My Computer and click on Properties, Hardware and Device Manager. Access this via Windows 98 by going Start > Settings > Control Panel > System > Device Manager. On restarting the system, Windows should detect the presence of the adapter and prompt you to take the steps necessary for the associated driver to be installed.Īfter Windows has been restarted, you can confirm that the driver software has been properly installed via Device Manager.


Windows 98 and Windows XP both have embedded driver support for the SCSI host adapter being used in this tutorial.
