You can use your Hitachi CD-ROM drive to play audio CDs wit the CDMGR.EXE 
and CDMENU.EXE programs included on the driver diskette.  CDPLAY.BAT 
installs the CDMGR.EXE as a memory-resident application and invokes the 
CDMENU.EXE.

The program offers features similar to those on a typical home CD player. 
It is intended to take up a minimum of screen space and machine resources 
while providing a simple, convenient means for using the Hitachi CD-ROM 
driver to play audio compact discs.

To run CDPLAY.BAT

1.  Type CDPLAY and press (ENTER).

2.  The following control box will appear on the screen.
