This procedure assumes that drive A is a 3.5-inch
floppy-disk drive and that drive C is a hard-disk drive.

If the correct path does not appear by default in the Open:
pulldown menu box, type the correct path (e.g., a:\install a: c:,
where a: is the source drive and c: is the destination drive).

3. Press

[ENTER]

The computer begins to execute the installation utility. Refer to
steps 4 through 15 in the Using DOS section (beginning on
page 2--2) for further instructions on installing your ODS
software.

If you are using a DOS- based system, you can optimize ODS
performance, by modifying your CONFIG.SYS file.

Important:

8100 HS110 software does not require you to add the
line ‘DEVICE=DF1DRV.SYS’.

1. Modify the CONFIG.SYS file, if necessary, to include these lines:

BUFFERS=25
FILES=20
DEVICE=DF1DRV.SYS
