Device Driver Installation
To install the drivers for the cPCI-8610/8620, refer to the
installation information in this chapter. Basic information is
presented in this section, however, for more detailed installation
information for non-Windows Operating Systems, refer to the
extensive explanation inside the ADLINK CD. The drivers are
located in the following directories of the CD-ROM:
VGA/AGP driver
LAN driver
As the Bus-mastering IDE drivers are automatically installed by
most Windows based operating systems, it will not be described.
Since Windows NT is a non-Plug and Play OS, here are some
useful tips for installing Windows NT drivers:
1. Install the LAN driver before installing any service pack.
2. Install the VGA/AGP driver after installing the service
pack. Make sure your service pack supports AGP.
Service pack 6 or higher is recommended.
If Windows NT boots with a warning message, check the Event
Viewer to view the source generating the message. If an unusual
event has occurred and it cannot be solved, re-install Windows NT
service pack, then install the drivers in a different sequence.
