* Technical Tips:
1. How to install/upgrage the NT operating system by CitiROM card?
Best way is to install a minimum DOS enviroment for CD-ROM; and install
or upgrade the NT operating system from CD-ROM.
Second way is to modify the BOOT diskettes. Usually, there are three
boot diskette distributed by NT, it's D1, D2, D3.
Following are the texts need to be inserted.
a. In D1 diskette, edit the "txtsetup.sif" filie.
Find [SourceDiskFiles] section, insert the following line after
starjet.dll. Text as such:
statpnt.sys = 1,,,,,,_3,4,0,0
b. In D1 diskette, in the "txtsetup.sif" file.
Find [SCSI.Load] section, insert the following line after atapi.
Text as such:
statpnt = statpnt.sys,4.
c. In the same file, find [SCSI] section, insert the following line
after "atapi", text as such:
statpnt = "Shining PCMCIA/CitiROM-ATA & ATAPI"
d. Now you are done with the SIF editing. Save it and exit the editor.
e. Last step, copy the "statpnt.sys" file onto the D3.
The "statpnt.sys" locate at the "\nt" directory of manufacturer
distribution diskette.
2. For ATAPI LS-120 Floppy user, installation procedure is the same as
installing the CD-ROM driver. However, it require v3.0 or above
STATPNT.SYS driver to work with.
3. If you are trying to use the LS120 drive on the NT3.51 system, you
MUST upgrade the NT3.51 system to "service pack 5".
4. The LS120( ATAPI Floppy ) v4.0 "statpnt.sys" driver is forcing NT
displaying the LS120 drive as "Floppy" icon in NT4.0 and NT3.51 instead
of "Removable Disk" in the v3.xx release.
5. ATAPI type device like CD-Recordable and CD-Rewritables are supported.
6. Ignore this item if use already install the NT service pack 4.
User need to install the WinNT4.0 service pack 3 or WinNT3.51 service
pack 5 if ZIP 100( ATAPI ) drive is used. And, also a "zip-fixi.exe"
should be also included. Both the service packs and "zip-fixi.exe"
can be accessed from:
"http://support.microsoft.com/support/ntserver/default-sl.asp".
The NT4.0 service pack 3 can also be found in the above location
and the "Ziptool" disc. File name is "NTSPK3_I.EXE"
A copy of zip-fixi.exe is included in the diskette for user's convenience.
Run the Service Pack 3 and "zipfixi.exe" before installing the
ZIP/ATAPI driver.
7. Should user already install the HDD NT driver "statant.sys" before,
user can disable the "statant.sys" by going to "Control Panel",
"Devices", find the "statant", click on the "StartUp" option and
set it to "Disabled" state if no HDD is attached the same adapter.
By doing so will speed up the bootup IDE bus device scanning speed.
8. NT4.0 may assign a couple irq's to the driver even they are not really
usable; which cause system hangup or timeout.
9. NT accept the partitions and file systems from DOS 6.x only, not
FAT32 or BIGDOS, BIGDOSx partitions created by Win95. Should
the hard disk was prepared under Win95 Rev. B( OSR2 ), the disk may
not be recognized.
10. For "statpnt.sys" v5.00 above, the HDD support is included in the
driver. No need to use the "statant.sys" any more. Go to "SCSI
Adapter" in the control panel, remove both of the "statpnt.sys" and
"statant.sys" drivers. Then "add" back the "statpnt" by using
"HaveDisk" option and "new" driver from the diskette.
11. A copy of System Soft Cardwizard NT Card/Socket Services resource
management INI file is included for referrence. User need to
copy this particular file onto the System Soft distribution diskette
before installation or onto the Cardwizard NT directory if the
Cardwizard Card/Socket services are pre-installed already. Certainly,
a reboot with PCMCIA card inserted is required.
Tip described is only necessary should Cardwizard is used to replace
NT native Card/Socket services.
12. If user can not get the ATA/ATAPI devices to work on NT4.0 for some
reason, please do the following to exclude IRQ's for PCMCIA card to
use( certain IRQ's may be blocked by system that NT4.0 is not aware
of ):
a. Go to registry by "Start", "Run", "regedt32".
b. Find the "HKey_LocalMachine\System\CurrentControlSet\Services
\Pcmcia" folder. Use mouse to click on the "Pcmcia" folder.
c. User should find the "InterruptMask" key value on the right-hand
box. If not, exit the registry, go to "SCSI Adapter", remove the
installed "statpnt" driver, add back the new v5.20 "statpnt" driver
by using the v5.20 installation "OEMSETNT.INF" and "statpnt"
driver. After the re-installation, go back to the registry from
step a. again.
d. The "InterruptMask" is a value belong to "Pcmica" key. It's
double word value with 16-bit value each bit representing the
particular IRQ should be masked or not for PCMCIA card to use.
The function is provided to allow user masking out certain IRQ
that is used by system like built-in FAX/MODEM function that
NT 4.0 is not aware of.
Each bit has two value: 1 - disable, 0 - enable.
Manufacurer already set to "0x5A01", a hex value as default.
0 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1
--- --- --- --- --- --- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
b15 b14 b13 b12 b11 b10 b9 b8 b7 b6 b5 b4 b3 b2 b1 b0
The IRQ's 14, 12, 11, 1, 0 are used by the system and are
not available for PCMCIA cards.
e. To change the InterruptMask value:
Click on the "Pcmcia" folder. Double-click on the "InterruptMask"
and change the value to a new value to exclude the IRQ might
be used by system already.
f. If "editing InterruptMask" does not help, access the registry:
Find the "HKey_LocalMachine\System\CurrentControlSet\Services
\statpnt1" folder. Use mouse to click on the "Pcmcia" folder and
double-click to open it. On the righthand side, it should show
current pre-set "InterruptNumber". Try to change it different
value that you feel is available. Exit registry and reboot.
Change the "IoBaseAddress" to different value is also possible:
Double-click the mouse on the "....\statpnt1" folder.
Find the "IoBaseAddress" on the right hand side. Double click
it and enter the new value. Default set to 150( Hex ) value,
value like 160( Hex ) is also available.
Note: 150 and 160 are Hexidecimal value, correspoding decimal
value are 336( decimal ) and 352( decimal ).
Note: Resource setting in this item applicable to PCMCIA card
only.
g. Support HDD > 8GB for STATPNT.SYS v5.50 and above.
h. When using the CardBus/IDE card, make sure you have SystemSoft
Cardwizard NT version v4.x and above installed since NT4.0 does not
support CardBus. Following are the steps to install
CardBus/Citirom card in NT:
a. Un-install the v4.x SystemSoft Cardwizard NT in your system.
b. Copy and overwrite "resman.ini" onto the Cardwizard NT
distribution diskette that have the file with identical name
as "resman.ini".
c. Use "SCSIAdpater" in "ControlPanel", "Driver", "Remove" the
existing "PCMCIA/Citirom..." driver, and then "Add" back
both "PCMCIA/CitiROM" and "CardBus/CitiROM" driver back.
d. Re-install the SystemSoft Cardwizard NT v4.x with the new
"resman.ini" just updated in the item b.
e. Reboot to take into effect.
f. v5.80 does not support Hot-swap, so the PC cards have to be
inserted before booting up and de-inserted only when system
is safe to shutdown.
Note: Manufaucture is working v6.0 for Hot-swap in NT4.0 now.
