Users questions:I bought an optical drive, a DVD burner, how to install? (Hardware and software)
Experts answer: Software: What is not allowed to drive, and burning software to install, recommend NERO hardware must first have the new equipment space. Drive is the IDE interface device, and now the computer has two generalEIDE interface, the maximum can be accessed by two pairs of the 40 core plug hard line to hang four IDE compatible devices. So if you have not been increased in the computer IDE interface devices other words, should have adequate space for the second hard disk or CD-ROM Second, we must beware of the power supply chassis size. Since many olderMachine provides the power output is only 200W so often, plus there are many people purchase their own equipment on the other after some new equipment, such as VOODOO class graphics (I was), network card, built-in MODEM, etc. Therefore, whether the full capacity of the old power supply for the new hard drive or optical drive again to provide adequateOutput power of very questionable. But do not underestimate the problem, the consequences range from crash it, while in the hard disk or optical drive will make you a glorious early "retirement." Therefore, it is best to replace your power more than 230W. Finally, note that if your motherboard BIOS supports UltraDMA device.Because of the Dadu and high-speed hard disk drives have been fully supports the UltraDMA standards. However, if we play out their speed advantage, must be effective support board. It stands to reason, UltraDMA standards have been out more than two years, and now the board is of course no problem at all. However, some playersLimited conditions are still using some old motherboards, such as HX, FX, VX, and some boards do not support UltraDMA TX standard. Thus even if fitted with a new hard drive or optical drive, they can only work in PIOMODE3 or PIOMODE4 downgrade mode, play mode not DMA transferData speed advantage. Therefore, the motherboard BIOS can be upgraded and conditions of the players, what level should rise again to install. Proper planning before installation and jumper settings to be able to play a support UltraDMA mode and high-speed hard disk drives, Dadu speed advantages in installing them as possibleWith old equipment (does not support DMA mode) separately, then in a different IDE interfaces (ie not shared with a hard line). The new drive connected to a single IDE interface, and to share the original hard drive and the old drive to another IDE interface, and the original hard drive as the primary disk, the old drive set to slave. (The setting methodCan see panel on the hard disk or optical drive or graphics printed caption) If your old devices support DMA mode, only the two hard drives or optical drive connected on the same IDE interface, and let the rest of a drive to another account IDE interfaces on the line. As to the same IDE interface which hard drive or opticalSet-based disk drive or from the disk, it all depends on personal preferences of the. But most of the equipment are designed to speed the main disk. Installation and related BIOS settings fixed the jumper over the drive set correctly, the plug in the power lines and data lines. Generally not misplaced, because the power cord connector is often designed as part of a special shape, The wrong is not inserted into the. The data line (hard line) side of the colored markers (black or red), while the interface of another number one or a small triangular flag, so as long as the two pairs will not be on the wrong plug. In addition, users install the second drive, connect the audio cable CD-ROM drive and sound card can pull it down, SunbeamDrive replaced. And after that, tighten the screw can be power-related projects for CMOS settings. Set as follows: "INTEGRATEDPERIPHERALS" setting. If the motherboard BIOS supports DMA mode, where there will be a number of related items: "IDEPrimary * Secondary * Master * SlaveUltraDMA ", can put them all set to" AUTO ", to automatically detect the CD-ROM motherboard is working in DMA mode and make the appropriate settings. If the motherboard does not support DMA mode, this step can be done to avoidBut in the installation of drive can only work in PIOMODE down.
