●Is the 4-pin power cable from the computer’s power supply attached correctly?

The CRW2200E drive is not recognized.

●Is the 4-pin power cable from the computer’s power supply attached correctly, and does the drive power up? Also, is the IDE cable connected correctly?

If the system has started up normally, you will be able to see the CRW2200E drive listed in Control Panel System Device Manager tab. The drive will be listed when you double-click on CDROM. (→P. 25)

●When you power up the computer, make sure that the drive name, CRW2200E, appears while Windows is starting up. If the name does not appear, check the cable connections for the CRW2200E drive.

●Check to see if there are any problems with other IDE devices. Some problems may occur in a multiple-IDE device system due to incompatibilities between the IDE devices and the computer, device drivers, data transfer speed, or other reasons. Make sure that the CRW2200E drive is recognized by the computer by temporarily removing other IDE devices from the system.

●Are the pins and holes on the IDE connectors straight and not deformed? Check the connectors.

●Are your IDE devices connected correctly?

If only one device is connected to one IDE cable, check that the setting of the device is MASTER or CSEL. When you connect two IDE devices to one IDE cable, be sure to assign each as MASTER or SLAVE respectively. If the setting of the CRW2200E drive is CSEL, change the setting to MASTER or SLAVE.

●To write to CD-R/RW discs, your CD writing software must support the CRW2200E drive.

To find out if it does, contact the manufacturer of your CD writing software.
