• Minor malfunctions while using the Reader-4, such as system hangs, can usually be
resolved by simply re-booting the computer. Serious or recurring malfunctions may
require a re-installation of the Reader-4 drivers.
Your new Reader is part of a system of components that must function correctly and
compatibly in order to complete the simple process of moving files from your device to
your computer. The components involved are the Reader, SmartMedia Device, Camera,
Storage Card, Computer (and its numerous components), USB Interface, Software
Drivers, and Operating System.
Network Conflicts - Windows® 2000, ME, 98 Drive Letter Assignment
The following procedure may be necessary when installing the e-Film Reader-4 onto a
computer connected to a network. In some cases, the computer may assign the
Reader-4 a drive letter that has already been assigned to another drive, such as a
network drive. This usually occurs after re-booting the computer with the Reader-4
connected. To avoid this conflict, the Reader-4 can be assigned an available drive letter
after you connect it to the computer but before re-booting. For more information, contact
your network administrator. If your computer is not connected to a network, and there
are no drive letter conflicts, these steps will not be necessary.
