First-time Operation

Preparations

9 Change the drive letter*1 for the internal DVD-ROM & CD-R/ RW drive.

In some cases, the drive letters for the DVD-ROM & CD-R/RW drive or con- nected devices (SD memory cards, external drives, etc.) may change when the DVD-ROM & CD-R/RW drive power is turned on or off. To prevent these letters from changing, we recommend that you allocate the drive letter for the DVD-ROM & CD-R/RW drive from the latter half of the alphabet (e.g., "L drive").

zAt the time of purchase, the DVD-ROM & CD-R/RW drive is allocated D drive.

zChange the drive letter before installing the application.

The procedure shown below is an example for allocating the L drive to the DVD-ROM & CD-R/RW drive.

ALog on to Windows with the administrator authority.

BClick [start] - [Control Panel] - [Performance and Maintenance] - [Adminis- trative Tools], and then double-click [Computer Management].

CClick [Disk Management] on [Storage].

DRight-click [CD-ROM 0]*2, and then click [Change Drive Letter and Paths...].

If the name of the DVD-ROM & CD-R/RW drive is not displayed, the drive power may be turned off. Turn on the drive power.

EClick [Change] at [Change Drive Letter and Paths...].

You cannot set this as the C drive. If you want to set a drive letter that is allocated to an SD memory card or external drive which is currently in use, disconnect the card or external drive.

FClick [Assign the following drive letter] and select [L], then click [OK].

GAt the confirmation message, click [Yes].

NOTE

zThe drive letter for the SD memory card cannot be changed or fixed.

*1 The drive letter is a single character A to Z allocated to storage devices (drives) by Windows. You cannot change this to the A drive, B drive, or C drive. You also cannot use a drive letter that is currently being used by another device, or a drive letter that has already been allo- cated to a network drive.

*2 Numbers may differ if an SD memory card or external drive is connected. When changing drive letters, we recommend that you disconnect any SD memory cards or external drives.
