would any other drive. This means you can now write files to your optical discs, delete
files from your discs, and even format them directly from Windows Explorer without
having to use any special mastering software.

Basic Installation Locations for HP DLA 2.5

Applicable to all supported OS platforms. (Win9x/ME, NT4, Win2k, and Windows XP)

There is really only one installation process though there are two products (the DLA
read only file system and the DLA file system). The only difference between the file
systems should be the PCONFIG and the registry settings. During installation, we
install the basic file set and set up a few registry settings. Then we install the DLA
drivers and again change a few registry settings. Each of these should be enumerated
below. Note that a “???” in the file name indicates that this is a language specific file
where “???” will be replaced with the installed language (“ENU” for English).
