   This information is only valid if you have the CD-ROM version of Adaptec
   EZ-SCSI.  Listed below is a brief description of the directory structure
   for the Adaptec EZ-SCSI 4.0 CD-ROM:

        SETUP.EXE             -->  Installation Program
        SETUP.TXT             -->  This file
        PRODUCTS     <DIR>    -->  On-line Product Literature
        OBSOLETE     <DIR>    -->  Old 16-Bit Utilities
        PHOTO_CD     <DIR>    -->  Photo CD images
        ACAP         <DIR>    -->  Adaptec Directory Listing Program
        DISK1        <DIR>    -->  Adaptec EZ-SCSI 4.0 Files
        DISK2        <DIR>    -->  Adaptec EZ-SCSI 4.0 Files
        DISK3        <DIR>    -->  Adaptec EZ-SCSI 4.0 Files
        DISK4        <DIR>    -->  Adaptec EZ-SCSI 4.0 Files


SETUP.EXE -> Installation Program:

        This file determines the operating system you are currently
        running (16-Bit or 32-Bit Windows) and executes the correct
        version of Adaptec EZ-SCSI's Installer.  If you are running
        16-Bit Windows (Windows 3.1), Adaptec EZ-SCSI will run the 16-Bit
        Installation program and only load the 16-Bit Adaptec EZ-SCSI
        device drivers and Windows applications.  If you are running
        32-Bit Windows, such as Windows 95 or Windows NT (version 3.51
        or later), the 32-Bit Installation program will install the
        32-Bit Windows applications as well as all device drivers to
        your system.

        SETUP.EXE decompresses the Adaptec EZ-SCSI files contained in
        the DISK1 through DISK4 directories and copies them to your system.


PRODUCTS <DIR> -> On-line Product Literature:

        One of the Adaptec product information applications in Adaptec
        EZ-SCSI 4.0, the Adaptec Literature application (for 32-Bit
        Windows only) is an on-line help file which displays Adaptec
        product flyers for our entire hardware product line in an easy
        to view help file format.


OBSOLETE <DIR> -> Old 16-Bit Utilities:

        Those users familiar with previous versions of Adaptec EZ-SCSI
        will recognize the utilities in the OBSOLETE driectory.  These
        files are 16-Bit utilities which support Adaptec SCSI host
        adapters.


PHOTO_CD <DIR> -> Photo CD Images:

        Adaptec EZ-SCSI 4.0 now includes over 80 full color, professional
        quality, photos from around the world.  Use the Photo CD Viewer to
        view all of these pictures or to save them as bitmaps and use them
        as your Windows background.


ACAP <DIR> ->  Adaptec Directory Listing Program:

        The Adaptec Compatibility Directory is provided by Adaptec as a
        service to its customers.  It is comprised of information submitted
        by companies that provide I/O solutions which support Adaptec SCSI
        host adapters and are members of the Adaptec Compatibility Advantage
        Program (ACAP).
