Installing the Driver When Installing Windows NT

A version of the aic78xx.sys driver (Ultra2 SCSI) driver is embedded (Included) in the Windows NT 3.5x and

4.0installation disks (or CD-ROM). During a normal Windows NT installation, the 7800 Family host adapter is detected in your system and the embedded driver is automatically installed.

Note: If you are booting from a 7800 Family host adapter and you are unable to install the embedded aic78xx.sys driver by performing a Windows NT installation, follow the

instructions for completing a fresh Windows NT installation.

The aic78u2.sys driver (Ultra2 SCSI) is not embedded on the Windows NT 3.5x and 4.0 installation disks (or CD-ROM) and must be installed after Windows NT has been installed.
