I.LSI SCSI Driver Installation

Windows NT 4.0 do not have drivers for such new SCSI controllers, the user must load the driver manually prior to Windows NT 4.0 installation.

A. Preparing a LSI Driver Diskette

The drivers are located on the ASUS Driver Support CD at:

\Drivers\Sdms\Drivers\WINNT

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

The LSI_U3.SYS executable driver is on ASUS Driver Support CD at:

\Drivers\Sdms\Diskimag\NT40.exe

B. New System Installation

This procedure installs the LSI_U3.SYS driver onto a Windows NT system. Use this procedure when installing Windows NT onto an unused SCSI drive. Windows NT automatically adds the driver to the registry and copies the driver to the appropriate directory. There are two methods to install the Windows NT system. One is installed by booting from NT CD Disc; the other is by booting from NT three installation floppy diskettes.

B1. CD-ROM Installation

1.Start the Windows NT installation by booting from the Windows NT CD-ROM. The system BIOS must support booting from a CD-ROM. LSI BIOS settings may need to be changed to allow CD-ROM booting when using SCSI-interface CD-ROM drive.

2.When the screen displays “Windows NT Setup”, immediately press the F6 key. This must be done or else the new driver installed from the LSI driver diskette will not be recognized.
