D.8 Installing Windows 98
The Mini Port Driver for Windows 95 which is delivered on the ICP System CDROM can be
also used for Windows 98. If Windows 98 is installed via a CDROM which is connected with
the ICP Controller, the following installation instructions have to be observed:
Step 1: Preparation of the installation
The "Delayed Write" function has to be switched off via the ICPCON program in the ROM of
the ICP Controller. As soon as the Windows 95/98 driver of the ICP Controller is installed,
this function can be switched on again. The driver checks whether the data in the cache of
the controller is being written to the hard disks (so-called cache-flush).
Step 2: Installation via a hard disk partition.
It is recommended to transfer the installation data from the Windows 98 CDROM onto a
hard disk partition beforehand. Therefore, the access to the CDROM connected with the ICP
Controller has to be configured on the boot disk delivered with Windows 98. It is recom-
mended to make a copy of the Windows 98 boot disk first and then to install the corre-
sponding files from the ICP CDROM (see this chapter), in order to setup the access to the
CDROM drive under DOS. With this modified boot disk, a partition can be installed on the
desired host drive (e.g., a single hard disk or a RAID array) of the ICP Controller. All data
from the Win98 directory of the Windows 98 CD has to be transferred to a corresponding
directory on the host drive by using the command "xcopy". In addition, the setup.exe file
has to be copied from the root directory of the Windows 98 CD onto the host drive. If not
yet available, it is now also time to generate an ICP Windows 95/98 driver disk from the ICP
System CDROM.
The Windows 98 boot disk is modified once again by removing all drivers for the ICP Control-
lers. The Setup Program from Windows 98 can be started after booting from the boot disk in
the previously created partition of the host drive.
The installation of Windows 98 can then be carried out in the usual way. After the installa-
tion has been carried out, the driver for the ICP Controller is installed (just as in Windows
95) via the device manager (also see this chapter).
