What is PacketCD ?
==================
    PacketCD is the first software product realizing the
    latest version of the OSTA UDF standard (1.50) for
    file-systems on CD-Recordable media for Windows 95.
    This file-system was designed to be integrated seam-
    lessly into the operating system of your computer.
    After you have formatted an empty CD-R this disc
    becomes available as a Windows 95 volume and can be
    used almost like a harddisk or a floppy.
    If you want to use the disc on another computer you
    need to prepare the disc for use in normal CD-ROM drives.

What is OSTA UDF ?
==================
    OSTA UDF stands for Optical Storage Technology Association
    Universal Disc Format. The OSTA is a group of hardware and
    software vendors (including CeQuadrat) who have adopted
    the ISO 13346 standard for DVD, CD-R and CD-RW applica-
    tions. The current version of the OSTA UDF standard is
    version 1.50 which is supported by this implementation of
    PacketCD.

Installation
============
    After you have inserted the PacketCD floppy into your
    floppy disk drive start 'Add/Remove Programs' from the
    Control Panel. Press the 'Install' button and follow the
    instructions on the screen.
    After the system has rebooted you can use your CD Recorder
    like any other drive in your system.
    To remove PacketCD from your system select 'CeQuadrat
    PacketCD' from the list of installed programs and click
    'Add/Remove'.

    Although PacketCD works with 'Auto Insert Notification'
    switched off, you will get better usability if this option
    is on.

Supported Devices
=================
    CeQuadrat wants to support as many CD-R devices as possible.
    In the future we plan to support all devices which can
    support the so called 'Incremental Packet Writing' mode.
    If you encounter problems with a drive listed below please
    make sure you are using the latest firmware available for
    this drive as 'IPW' is a relatively new technology and only
    the latest firmware guarantees success in using PacketCD
    with your Recorder.

    If you are not sure wether your recorder is an OEM version
    of the above mentioned please contact support.


Troubleshooting
===============
    It was not possible for us to check with all possible
    configurations of Windows 95 systems. Therefore, if
    you encounter problems with your PC that aroused after
    PacketCD has been installed on you computer please try
    to send us a detailed description of all hardware and
    software installed on your system.
    Especially system extensions like system monitors or
    additional caches are potential candidates for problems.

    Directly after a writing session the disc remains locked
    for a few seconds (typically 15). After this time the
    disc is 'clean' and can be removed from the drive either
    by using 'eject' from the drives context menu or simply
    by pressing the drive's eject button.
