B1. Cd-Rom Installation; B2. Boot Floppy Disk Installation - Asus TR-DLSR User Manual

5. OS Driver Installation

B1. CD-ROM Installation

1. Start the Windows NT installation by booting from the Windows NT CD-ROM.
The system BIOS must support booting from a CD-ROM. LSI BIOS settings
may need to be changed to allow CD-ROM booting when using a SCSI CD-
ROM drive.
2. When the screen displays "Windows NT Setup", immediately press the F6
key. This must be done or else the new driver installed from the LSI driver
diskette will not be recognized.
Note: If F6 is not pressed, the user is still given the opportunity to load additional
drivers later in the installation process. However, any driver loaded during
Windows NT Setup are not immediately recognized and no devices controlled
by that driver are available during Windows NT Setup.
3. When prompted for the manufacturer-supplied hardware support disk, insert
the appropriate LSI driver diskette containing the Windows NT driver required
to support your LSI adapter(s) and press Enter. The driver files are distributed
with ASUS Driver Support CD and are created from above "Preparing a LSI
Driver Diskette" Section.
4. Depending on the driver being installed, either "LSI PCI High Performance
Driver", or "LSI Logic Ultra3 PCI SCSI Driver" is shown highlighted. Press
Enter to proceed.
5. Windows NT should now recognize the miniport driver(s) and the SCSI
hardware. Press Enter to continue. At this point, simply follow the Microsoft
Windows NT installation procedure. As for the onboard LAN and VGA, please
refer to the later sections for network and graphics driver installation.

B2. Boot Floppy Disk Installation

1. Start the Windows NT installation by booting from the Microsoft Setup floppy
diskette.
2. Press Enter when the Welcome to Setup screen appears. The Windows NT
Workstation Setup window appears next.
3. Press S to skip automatic detection and perform a manual selection. A screen
displays the message "Setup has recognized the following mass storage devices
in your computer...".
4. With floppy disk 2, there is an initial setup screen that prompts you to continue
by pressing Enter.
5. Press S to skip mass storage device detection. (If Enter is pressed, the
installation program scans for SCSI adapters and finds the LSI PCI (53C810)
driver which is an older version of the SYMC8XX.SYS driver. Let installation
continue and change the driver when the installation is completed.) To change
the driver, see Existing System Installation.
