The instructions for getting this to work are VERY simple.  If it does not
work precisely this way, then there is a separate problem about which IBM
needs to be informed.

Find a copy of TMV1SCSI.ADD.  Your "old" one should be fine.  Copy it to
the top directory of diskette 1.  Modify the diskette 1 CONFIG.SYS file
and add the line BASEDEV=TMV1SCSI.ADD.

At this point, you may want to REM out some of the other SCSI device
BASEDEVs, but this wasn't necessary in my case.

THAT'S IT!  During installation, you should see your CD-ROM light up.  If
it doesn't... something isn't right.

One thing I can suggest... is this a new ProAudio Spectrum from one of the
MediaVision MV-x000 kits?  If it is, there are NO SCSI drivers for these,
yet!  They use a different SCSI chip than older PASp's.  I bought an
MV-1000 but got it to work because I happened to have a ProAudio Studio 16
laying around that uses the Trantor SCSI chip.

Good luck!
