Swapping a Host Adapter

Swapping a 7800 Family host adapter for non-7800 Family host adapter is similar to the procedure for adding a host adapter. The important distinction is that you make all software configuration changes while Windows NT is running and before you make the hardware changes.

Note: If you do not install the driver that comes with the new host adapter, it may result in a Windows NT boot failure.
