SOFTPAQ UTILITY VERSION:  3.1

SUPERSEDES:  SP2891

DESCRIPTION:  Contains installation files for an updated Windows NT driver 
for an LS-120 drive installed in a Deskpro computer.  The LS-120 drive, which 
may be standard or optional equipment, is a 3.5-inch diskette drive that uses 
diskettes capable of storing up to 120-MB.  This updated driver corrects problems 
caused by the original Windows NT LS-120 driver.  The installation process requires 
over 1 MB of free hard drive space.  If the installation files are then deleted, 
the driver takes up less than 15 KB of hard drive space.

Enhancements/Fixes:
 - Modifies installation scripts to explicitly set the Disk class driver's
      time-out to 15 seconds.  This prevents the LS-120 from causing a
      time-out condition during the portion of initialization that determines
      device ownership.  
 - Fixes issue where LS-120 intermittently appears as a removable disk 
      instead of a diskette drive.  

HOW TO USE:

1. Download the SoftPaq to a directory on your hard drive.
The file downloaded is a self-extracting executable with a filename
based on the Softpaq number above.

2. Execute the downloaded file and follow the on-screen instructions.
Entering "Y" to confirm the unpacking of files creates a new directory
folder in the downloaded directory.  All files are unpacked into this
newly created directory.

3. After the directory has been created, you may delete the
self-extracting file downloaded in step 1.

4. To install, execute SETUP.EXE in the created directory and
follow on-screen instructions:

   <path>\dcmnt\disk1\setup

   where <path> is the drive and directory chosen in step 1
                      
             - or -

   a:\setup

   if using the optional installation diskettes 

   Follow the on-screen instructions.

5. After installation is complete, you may delete the directory
created in step 2 if you wish.
