Troubleshooting

General problems (depending on the type of connection)

If you still have problems getting your FREECOM drive to function properly

despite having installed it correctly, then please check whether

• the FREECOM Cable II is properly connected to your FREECOM drive
• the drive is being supplied with power
• the tray can be opened and closed
• your system meets the hardware requirements (see pages 5/6)

If the computer crashes during the software installation or when trying to run

the software from the disk
• do not use any memory manager such as QEMM
• disable the system's Power Management.
• check if all the requirements contained in the instructions on the disk have

been fulfilled.

• check if the FREECOM device is properly connected to the Cable
• check if the drive is being supplied with power when you boot your system

If audio playback does not work, please check if

• the loudspeaker is properly connected
• the cables are firmly connected
• the loudspeaker control on the amplifier or on the active loudspeakers is

correctly set

• the audio software is correctly installed.
• If your FREECOM drive appears to have problems accessing a CD after a long

period of time, please use a lens cleaning set which you can purchase at your

local computer retailer.

Note: Please note that CD-RW drives (FREECOM Portable CD-RW / Combo

CD-RW / DVD) must never be cleaned with a lens cleaning set!
