install the new driver included on the driver diskette you
create from the Dell Server Assistant CD.
1. If you choose to install Windows NT from a dis-
kette drive, locate the Windows NT Disk 1 for
Floppy Installation diskette. Make a backup copy
of this diskette.
If you are installing from a CD-ROM drive,
locate the Windows NT Setup Disk 1 for CD-ROM
Installation diskette. Make a backup copy of this
diskette.
2. Put the backup diskette into drive A, and turn on
your system. When prompted, insert the Windows
NT Setup Disk 2 diskette.
3. From the Welcome to Setup screen, press
<Enter> to set up Windows NT.
4. When prompted for the setup method, select
Custom.
5. Press <Enter> to continue, and insert the Win-
dows NT Setup Disk 3 diskette when prompted to
do so.
6. After a period of time, Windows NT Setup dis-
plays all recognized SCSI controllers. If no SCSI
controllers are found, Windows NT Setup dis-
plays none. Press <s> to configure additional
SCSI controllers.
7. Expand the list of additional SCSI controllers,
select Other, and press <Enter>.
The Other option is at the end of a long list of SCSI
controllers and is highlighted.
8. Insert into drive A the Windows NT 3.51 driver
diskette you created, enter the following path to
the installation files, and then click OK.
a:\scsi
9. The screen displays the adapter drivers sup-
ported on the diskette. The Adaptec AHA-2940/
AIC-78xx (PCI) NT 3.51 driver is highlighted by
default; press <Enter> to select this driver.
10. If you want to add other SCSI controllers (not
part of the Adaptec 78xx series), do so at this time
by repeating steps 7 though 9 for each additional
adapter, inserting the appropriate diskette
provided by the hardware manufacturer.
Because all Adaptec 78xx series SCSI controllers use
the same driver, you configure all Adaptec SCSI
controllers at the same time.
11. Press <Enter> to continue with the Windows NT
operating system setup. Follow the instructions
on the screen and in the Windows NT installation
documentation.
