20100030922 | COMPUTER PERIPHERAL DEVICE IMPLEMENTED AS OPTIC STORAGE DEVICE OR/AND REMOVABLE DISK BY SOFTWARE EMULATION AND IMPLEMENTING METHOD THEREOF - The present invention relates to a method of implementing an internal memory of a computer peripheral device as an optical storage device or/and a removable disk by software emulation. The computer peripheral device does not include additional hardware for driving the computer peripheral device as an optical storage device or/and a removable disk. A part of the internal memory of the computer peripheral device functions as a virtual optical storage device or/and a removable disk through software emulation. To achieve this, an emulation program is added to the computer peripheral device. The internal memory stores a program for recognizing the operating system and hardware type of a host as well as a device utilization application. | 02-04-2010 |
