1. PC USERS

    Your FireWire/1394 Storage System is compatible with any PC running Windows
    98SE/ME and Windows 2000/XP that has a FireWire/1394 port. It installs with
    the normal Plug and Play process:

    1) Make sure that the FireWire/1394 Storage System is plugged into a wall
       outlet and is powered up.
    2) Plug the FireWire/1394 cable into the PC.
    3) Windows will find the new hardware and will give drive Icon automatically.
       No other drivers are required.

       The drivers are now loaded. If the storage device in your FireWire/1394
       Storage System is a hard disk, you must now partition and format the drive.
       This is done through the use of the DOS utility FDISK. See your Windows
       documentation if you are unfamiliar with FDISK. Note that you must run FDISK
       before you try to format the drive and that you must run FDISK in a DOS
       window while Windows is running.

       If you have a problem in plug and unplug with Windows 98SE, you must
       download the patch file from Microsoft Website to solve this problem.
