Frequently Answers and Questions

What modifications will I have to make to the AUTOEXEC.BAT and the CONFIG.SYS files in order to use the DiskOnChip2000?

None. The flash file driver is contained in a hidden partition of the flash chip. The driver is loaded automatically during start-up by most operating systems. The loading and execution of this driver is transparent to the user.

Will I need to place any special files on the DiskOnChip2000 in order for it to work?

No. The DiskOnChip driver is kept on the flash media, in a safe place, protected from and invisible to the user.

How will I upgrade the DiskOnChip firmware when M-Systems releases new software versions? Will the DiskOnChip2000 have to be removed from its socket?

The DiskOnChip does not need to be removed from the socket. Running a simple utility program on the target system can perform the upgrade quickly and easily.
