II.     Device Driver and Utility Usage of PCMCIA/CitiROM card

        ==============================================
        PCMI80CL.SYS ( ATAPI/IDE PCMCIA Client Driver )
        ==============================================

          This driver supports the PCMCIA 2.1+ Card/Socket services
          specifications.  It is mandatory to load this driver 
          before using the STATPCDM.SYS device driver.  This device
          driver is PCMCIA/CitiROM card specific.

          Installation Format:

                Device = <path>\PCMI80CL.SYS [/Xn]

                /Xn - Ignore the checking the card service version
					  1 -- ignore,  0 -- check( default )

        Note:  Two version of the client driver is placed on the diskette.
               PCMI80CL.300 will search IO ranges from 170, 160 to 150 and
               search IRQ from F, C, to B.
               PCMI80CL.310 will search IO ranges from 150, 160 to 170 and
               search IRQ from B, C, to F.
               User can rename either one of them to be the PCMI80CL.SYS
               to work with your computer.  Manufacture had preset to the
               PCMI80CL.310.

        ==============================================
        STATPCDM.SYS( ATAPI/IDE CD-ROM device driver )
        ==============================================

          This device driver requires the PCMI80CL.SYS client driver. 
          Install the PCMI80CL.SYS driver before the STATPCDM.SYS driver.

          Installation Format:

                Device = <path>\STATPCDM.SYS [/I:n] [/Qn] /D:<drive name>

                /I:n - how many drive letter to be reserved for plug
                       and play purpose, when using this parameter
                       the CD-ROM drives will not be initialized when
                       system bootup.  However, be sure the card is 
                       inserted in the system boot up time to allow
                       Card/Socket/Client services to recognize the
                       existence.
                      n must be 1 - 2
                      Default value is 1 if n is not specified.

                /Qn - Use Interrupt
				      1 -- yes( default ), 0 -- no, use polling	

                /D:<drive name> - specified the drive name for 
                      MSCDEX to match
                      Defautl name is SCSIDE0

        Please install MSCDEX.EXE in AUTOEXEC.BAT file as shown below:

                MSCDEX /D:<drive name> /M:10

        ==============================================================
        STIDEHDD.SYS( IDE Fixde or Removable Hard Disk device driver )
        ==============================================================

          This device driver requires the PCMI80CL.SYS client driver. 
          Install the PCMI80CL.SYS driver before the STIDEHDD.SYS driver.

          Installation Format:

                Device = <path>\STIDEHDD.SYS

          For disk( diskette ) preparation, please use the DOS supported
          FDISK and FORMAT utilities.


III.    Product Support List - Not all inclusive

IV.     Technical tips
        **************

    Use this section as supplement to the Trouble Shooting section in the
    manual.


    a.  If your notebook or desktop PCMCIA card reader is using the 
        Databook controller, be sure to edit the SuperClient Driver 
        inside the CONFIG.SYS as the following:
     
		"device=c:\pcmcia\cardtalk.sys /iow=170-177 /iow=370-377"

		This will exclude the Cardtalk( SuperClient ) driver to 
        check the io range between the 170-177 and 370-377.

    b.  If your notebook or desktop PCMCIA card read is using the 
        CARDWARE services, be sure to edit the CARDWARE.INI [Resources]
        section as the following:
		I/O=0x170,0x10,E,10
		I/O=0x370,0x10,E,10
		IRQ=15,E
		
    c.  If your notebook or desktop PCMCIA card read is using the 
        Cirrus Logic Socket service, be sure to exclude the IRQ 15
        as the resource for card service.  Consult the PCMCIA driver
        manual to exclude the resouce.
