5.2.1 LSI® SCSI Driver Installation

A. Preparing an LSI Driver Disk

The drivers are located on ASUS Driver Support CD at:

\Drivers\Sdms\Drivers\Win2k

Copy all the files and subdirectory under the Win2k subdirectory to the root directory of a clean floppy disk. Use this LSI driver disk during installation. (-or-) Use the self-extracting image files for Windows 2000 drivers.

For the LSI_U3.SYS driver, the executable file is located here:

\Drivers\Sdms\Diskimag\Win2k.exe

B. New System Installation

The LSI_U3.SYS drivers are non-bundled drivers. The LSI_U3.SYS driver supports the LSI LSI 53C1010R/53C1030 controller. To install Windows 2000 on a new system, the system BIOS must support booting from a CD- ROM. LSI BIOS settings may need to be changed to allow CD-ROM booting.

1.Start the Windows 2000 installation by booting from the Windows 2000 CD-ROM.

2.For installation of the LSI_U3.SYS drivers, when the screen displays “Windows 2000 Setup”, press theF6 key to install the LSI_U3.SYS drivers. This must be done or else these new drivers is not

recognized.

Even if you did not press F6, you are still allowed to load additional drivers later in the installation process. However, any drivers loaded during Windows NT Setup are not immediately recognized and no devices controlled by that driver are available during Windows 2000 Setup.

3.When prompted for the manufacturer-supplied hardware support disk, insert the appropriate LSI driver disk containing the Windows 2000 driver required to support your LSI adapter(s) and press Enter. The LSI Driver disk is creating prior to installing Windows 2000.
