The "Software Preparation (first time only) Windows 95 model" described in the Operating Instructions of the CD-
ROM Pack has been changed. The following settings are necessary in order to prepare the CD-ROM Pack for use:
1 Select [Start] - [Settings] - [Control Panel] - [System] - [Device Manager] - [CD-ROM] - [MATSHITAUJDCD8715]
- [Settings]. Set [Start drive letter] and [End drive letter] of [Reserved drive letter] to [L].
2 Clear the check mark from [Auto insert notification] under [Options]. If this setting is omitted and power saving
mode is turned on (using the Setup Utility), the power saving mode is still disabled. Also, charging takes place
intermittently, even during charging, so the battery indicator periodically lights and goes dark.
3 Select . Follow the instructions that appear on the screen to restart the computer..
Even after installing the CD-ROM Pack or Second Battery Pack, "Removable Disk (A:)" is displayed in "My Com-
puter", but access is not possible. When the display appears, select [Cancel].
