ULTRA2 LVD SCSI HOST ADAPTER
5.2 Installing Drivers for Windows 95
The procedure for installing drivers in Windows 98 is not the same as
the procedure used for Windows 95. If you are running Windows 98,
skip to Section 5.3.
With an additional software driver, your Ultra2 LVD SCSI Host Adapter will support
Microsoft Windows 95 and Windows 95b (OSR2). The installation procedure
described here requires some experience in Windows 95 system setup and
administration. The device driver is transferred from Driver Disk 1 to the hard
drive, from which it is automatically loaded during the system-boot routine.
These installation files are in the "A:\WIN95" directory on Driver Disk 1:
"A:\WIN95\INIA100.MPD" is the Adapter's Windows 95 miniport driver, and
"A:\WIN95\INIA100.INF" is the Windows 95 installation-information file.
The Adapter's Windows 95 driver is loaded during the system-boot routine and
will remain resident on the drive. This is accomplished by following one of the six
installation procedures listed in this section. There are three procedures for each
of the two major versions of Windows 95 (95/95a and 95b): new Windows 95
installation, adding the Adapter's Windows 95 device driver to an existing
Windows 95 system, or updating the INIA100.MPD device driver.
For users who are adding or updating the driver in an existing system:
To determine which version of Windows 95 you have, check the dates of
the files in your WINDOWS directory. If most of the files are dated
07/11/95, your Windows 95 is the first-release version. If they're dated
12/31/95, you have Windows 95a or Windows 95 with Service Pak 1. If
they're dated 08/24/96, you have Windows 95b or OSR2.
These procedures differ significantly from one another. We strongly suggest that
you carefully read the instructions for the procedure you plan to use and make
sure you understand them before proceeding with the corresponding system-
configuration changes.
