1. Microsoft Windows NT Server

I. LSI SCSI Driver Installation
LSI Logic and Microsoft together provided miniport drivers, "SYM_HI.SYS" (for
SYM53C896) and "LSI_U3.SYS" (for SYM53C1010). The SCSI chipset used on
your motherboard will depend on the model you purchased. The following sections
describe how to prepare and install the SCSI drivers. Since Windows NT 4.0 do not
have drivers for such new SCSI controllers, the user must load the driver manually
prior to Windows NT 4.0 installation.
A. Preparing a LSI Driver Diskette
The drivers are located on the ASUS Driver Support CD at:
\SDMS\DRIVERS\WINNT\XXXXX\I386\WINNT\MINIPORT
where XXXXX represents the specific Windows NT subdirectory. For example, the
SYM_HI.SYS driver is located in the WINNTHI subdirectory. Copy the I386 and
MINIPORT subdirectories to the root directory of a clean floppy diskette. Use this
driver diskette during Windows NT installation. (-or-) Use the self-extracting image
files for Windows NT drivers.
The SYM_HI.SYS executable driver is located on the ASUS Driver Support CD at:
\SDMS\DISKIMAG\NT_HI
The LSI_U3.SYS executable driver is located on the ASUS Driver Support CD at:
\SDMS\DISKIMAG\NT_U3
B. New System Installation
This procedure installs the SYM_HI.SYS or LSI_U3.SYS driver onto a Windows
NT system. Use this procedure when installing Windows NT onto an unused SCSI
drive. Windows NT automatically adds the driver to the registry and copies the driver
to the appropriate directory. There are two method to install the Windows NT sys-
tem. One is installed by booting from NT CD Disc; the other is by booting from NT
three installation floppy diskettes.
