Upgrading Drivers

Upgrading an existing installation consists of installing new drivers using the Windows
Device Manager.
IMPORTANT: If you want to upgrade a ServerNet II driver, disable and enable the SPAD2 driver, then
update it. This upgrades all ServerNet II drivers. You should not individually upgrade ServerNet II drivers
(such as SNNDIS, VIVA, or SANMAN).
1. Use one of the following methods to Open the Windows Device Manager:
a. Click Start, select Settings, select Control Panel and double-click the System icon.
b. From the System screen, select the Hardware tab.
c. Click the Device Manager button.
d. Or, right click My Computer on the desktop.
e. From the drop-down menu, select Properties.
f. From the System Properties screen, select the Hardware tab.
Click the Device Manager button.
2. To view the appropriate drivers, click the + symbol next to SAN Adapter to display
the subdirectories:

driver files.
