Configuration for the Windows NT environment
If you use Windows NT 4.0 with the 4mmDAT.SYS driver from
Microsoft, you
must
set Switch 10 (the Inquiry-String switch)
to OFF. If you use the STDAT4.SYS driver from Seagate, you
can leave the Switch 10 in its default position (ON).
Regardless of which driver you use, all four of the operating-
system configuration switches should be left ON (the default
positions).
