Microsoft Windows-NT Driver Installation

Overview

The Initio INI-9100U/9100UW host adapter will support Windows-NT v3.5x/4.0 with the addition of a software driver. A software driver allows the host computer the ability to transfer data over the SCSI bus. The device driver for Windows-NT is copied from the Initio driver installation diskette to your hard drive where it is loaded onto the computing system during installation.

The following files are used for installation and may be found on the INITIO INI-9100U/9100UW DRIVER DISK 1:
