9.
Repeat steps 4 through 8 for each SCSI host adapter installed on the system. If a
driver supports more than one host adapter, the driver only needs to be installed
one time.
10. Press <Enter> to continue with Windows NT Setup.
11. When you are prompted to install the Adaptec 7800 Family Manager Set for Win-
dows NT 4.0, use the SCSI and video controller driver diskette you created for
Windows NT from the Dell Server Assistant CD.
12. When you are prompted to install the RAID controllers, use the RAID driver dis-
kette you created for Windows NT from the Dell Server Assistant CD.
13. Click Yes when prompted to restart the system, and remove the diskette from
the diskette drive.
After the system reboots, the new drivers are active. Some drive assignments may
have changed from the previous configuration. Be sure to complete the Windows NT
installation by performing the following tasks:
Install Windows NT Service Pack 3.0
Install the video drivers
Install network interface controller (NIC) drivers
Refer to the Windows NT installation documentation for details.
To remove a PCI SCSI controller, remove the expansion card from its slot when your
computer is shut down. Windows NT boots and functions properly in this configura-
tion. However, if an unused device driver remains on the system, a warning message
is generated and an entry is made into the system log file every time you boot Win-
dows NT. To eliminate the warning message, you must update the Windows NT
software configuration as follows:
1.
Click the Start button, point to Settings, and click Control Panel.
2.
Double-click the SCSI Adapter icon.
The SCSI Adapter window appears.
Select the Drivers tab. A list of all installed host adapters appears.
3.
Highlight the driver to be removed.
4.
When you are sure you are removing the correct host adapter, click Remove.
Because SCSI device drivers are loaded during system start-up and because they
may be needed to load Windows NT itself, a message may appear warning you
that Windows NT may not start if you remove the SCSI adapter.
