PDR100 Troubleshooting

If, after installing the CD-ROM drive, Windows NT does not indicate that the
drive is present or the message, “At least one service or driver failed during
start-up”, is displayed during start-up, try the following simple steps.

1. Check that the parallel cable is securely connected to both the CD-ROM drive

and the PDR100.

2. Check that the CD-ROM drive has power applied.

If neither of these solves the problem, use the following sections to find another
solution.

NOTE: The procedures that follow require you to be logged on as
Administrator. Refer to “Installing the Windows NT CD-ROM
Driver” on page 44 for instructions on logging on as Administrator.
