Loading the StorCon Program Under Windows NT/2000

1. Ensure that Windows has been configured to meet all the requirements of the RAID Software
Suite setup.
2. If the Intel RAID Controller SRCU32 has not been installed into the computer, then install it
before continuing. Consult Chapter 2 for details when installing the Intel RAID Controller
SRCU32.
3. Log into Windows using a user account with administrative rights.
4. Insert the RAID Software Suite CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive. Select "Install" to install
StorCon.
5. Click "Yes" if you agree with the License Agreement.
6. Click "Next" after reading "Information."
7. Select Components - Select one of the following (Remote or Local administration):
a. Local Administration:
Select the components that you wish to install or select the default selections
(Windows NT, see Figure 11) (Windows 2000, see Figure 12). Click "Next" to continue
the installation.
b. Remote Administration:
Select "Remote Storage Console" under "Management Tools" (Windows NT, see
Figure 11) (Windows 2000, see Figure 12). Click "Next" to continue the installation.
8. Choose "Destination Location." Use the default directory for installation and click "Next."
9. Select the "Program Folder." Use default Program Group and click "Next."
10. After the file copy completes, restart the computer to complete the installation for NT. For
Windows 2000 where the OS is installed on a non-RAID device, continue with step 12.
11. Windows 2000 Only: Reboot the server and log into Windows. If the OS is not on a RAID
device, you will see a pop up message, "Found New Hardware." The OS has detected the
RAID management driver.
12. Continue by clicking "Next." The OS will attempt to locate the drivers for this device.
13. Do not let the OS locate the driver. When prompted, uncheck the boxes for "Floppy" and
"CD-ROM." Place a check in the "Specify Location" box.
14. Type the following location: "c:\program files\raid software suite\drivers."
NOTE
This is the default installation location. If you have not chosen the default during installation, type
in that location. This is important to keep the Found New Hardware pop up from appearing each
time you log into Windows.
15. Finish the installation and reboot.
This completes the installation procedure for Windows.
