I.LSI SCSI Driver Installation

User only need to load the driver manually when the TR-DLS M/B has build-in with LSI SYM53C1010 SCSI controller.

A. Preparing a Symbios Driver Diskette

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 diskette. Use this LSI driver diskette 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 SYM53C1010 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 the F6 key to install the LSI_U3.SYS drivers. This must be done or else these new drivers is not recognized.

3.If F6 is not pressed, the user is still given the opportunity to load additional drivers later in the installation process. However, any driver loaded at this later time is not recognized and no devices controlled by that driver are available during Windows 2000 Setup.

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