1.3 Quick Windows Driver Installation

1-4
To load the SYMMPI.SYS miniport driver during a new Windows NT,
Windows 2000, Windows XP, or Windows .NET system installation, you
can boot directly from the Microsoft installation CD-ROM. The Windows
drivers are not interchangeable; however, the instructions are very similar.
To install a new Windows operating system and its appropriate device
driver, follow these steps:
Step 1. Have the Microsoft Windows driver diskette available to insert
into drive A when prompted.
Step 2. Boot the computer from the Microsoft Windows CD-ROM.
Step 3. Press F6 when the words Setup is inspecting your
computer's hardware configuration appear, or when
Windows prompts you for nonsupported drivers.
Important: You must press F6 for the new driver to be recognized.
Otherwise, the system does not recognize the devices
controlled by the driver during the Windows setup.
Step 4. Follow the instructions until a screen displaying the words
Setup could not determine the type of one or more mass
storage device... appear.
Step 5. Choose S to Specify Additional Devices.
Step 6. Follow the prompts and insert the Windows driver diskette
when prompted.
Step 7. Follow the Microsoft Windows installation procedure to
complete the installation. Microsoft provides documentation
with its installation CD-ROM.
Step 8. If you are installing Windows NT 4.0, also install the
Service Packs 5 or higher after Windows NT 4.0 has been
installed.
Note: Refer to the Fusion-MPT Device Management User's Guide
for detailed configuration and installation instructions for all
firmware and drivers.
