Installing Windows 95
(Retail Upgrade – Version 950a)
SmartRAID VI controllers are not supported by Windows 3.1, therefore
an upgrade process from Windows 3.1 to Windows 95 does not apply.
However, the Retail Upgrade Version (950a) can be installed like a new
operating system if you have your original Windows 3.1 diskettes.
Follow the installation instructions in the Installing Windows 95 (OEM
SR2 950b) section of this chapter. During the first phase of the
installation the Windows 95 installation program will prompt you to
insert your original Windows 3.1 disk to verify your eligibility for the
upgrade. After the upgrade is authenticated , the process continues as a
normal installation on a new system.
Adding SmartRAID VI to an Existing Windows 95/98
Configuration
This section describes the steps to install a SmartRAID VI controller to
an existing Windows 95/98 configuration. Ensure that your hard drives,
arrays, CD-ROM drive, and any other SCSI device attached to the
controller are recognized by SMOR before proceeding.
Do the following to install a SmartRAID VI controller in an existing
Windows 95/98 system:
1.
Install the SmartRAID VI controller in the system and start
Windows 95/98. If Windows prompts for a driver to support a PCI
Card or Memory Controller), go to step 7.
2.
If Windows did not discover the devices during boot, start Device
Manager (Control Panel – System) and look for a PCI Card entry
in the Other Devices category. There may be multiple entries if
you have multiple SmartRAID VI controllers installed. There may
also be an entry for PCI Memory Controller.
