Microsoft Windows 95/95b (OSR2) Driver Installation

Adding the Initio Driver to an Existing Windows 95/95a System

These instructions will guide you through the installation of the Initio host adapter to an existing Windows 95 system. Windows 95 will automatically detect the presence of new hardware in Plug and Play compliant systems. It is important that the Initio hardware has been properly installed before proceeding further.

1Microsoft Windows 95 will detect the presence of new hardware upon boot-up and will display a dialog window titled NEW HARDWARE FOUND and PCI SCSI BUS CONTROLLERS will be highlighted.

•Select: DRIVER FROM DISK PROVIDED BY HARDWARE MANUFACTURER, then “OK”

•Select SCSI CONTROLLER from the list of available devices, then select “HAVE DISK...”

2In the INSTALL FROM DISK window that is displayed, enter the Initio Driver path name:

Insert INI-9XXXU/9XXXUW DRIVER DISK 1 into drive A: Type: A:\WIN95, select “OK”

3Select Initio INI-9XXXU/UW PCI SCSI Host Adapter, select “OK”, then “OK” again to install the INI910U.MPD driver onto your hard disk drive. It may be necessary to direct Windows to look for the driver in A:\win95 before the driver can be copied. This step may need to be repeated more than once.

4This completes loading the Host Adapter Driver. You must now reboot your system to activate the SCSI device driver. .

5It is highly recommended that you verify Initio’s Windows 95 device driver by selecting MY COMPUTER from the desktop. Then select CONTROL PANEL:

•Select SYSTEM from within the CONTROL PANEL group,

•Select DEVICE MANAGER from within the SYSTEM group,

•Select SCSI CONTROLLER from within the DEVICE MANAGER listing, and

•Select the Initio INI-9XXXU/UW PCI SCSI Host Adapter from within the SCSI CONTROLLER listing. If “This device is working properly” is displayed on your screen, the driver has been correctly installed.
