Setup Procedures

Verifying the Hardware Installation

After connecting the CRW8824IX drive to the computer (or an IEEE daisy-chain or tree), you can verify that the drive is correctly recognized from your computer.

Windows Users

Make sure that the CRW8824IX is recognized by the operating system.

From the Windows 98 Second Edition’s [Start] menu, select [Settings]-[Control Panels] and open the [System] control panel. In the [System Properties] window, select the [Device Manager] tab. If you can find a new CD drive icon (YAMAHA CRW8824E), an IEEE1394 bus controller icon, and an SBP2 icon as shown below, you have successfully installed both the drive and the IEEE1394 interface card as Windows OS recognizes both devices.

This screen shot is from Windows 98 Second Edition.

nFor more information about how to use the operating system, refer to the documentation that came with it.

nIf there is a mark next to the icon for the CRW8824IX drive or the IEEE1394 bus controller, this means that it has not been installed correctly. In either case, the CRW8824IX drive may not work properly.

nFor Windows 2000, double-click [System] in the [Control Panels], select the [Hardware] tab, and click the [Device Manager] button in [System Properties].
