If you are performing a first time Windows NT installation, see the "Installing Win-
dows NT v4.0 with the FMS Driver" sections below.

If Windows NT is already installed on your system, see the "Updating the FMS
Driver under Windows NT v4.0" sections below.

Installing Windows NT v4.0 with the FMS Driver

The following instructions explain how to install the Adaptec 7800 Family Manager
Set v3.01, while installing Windows NT v4.0.

1. Start your system with the Windows NT Boot Diskette in the floppy drive.

2. Insert diskette #2 when prompted. After a few moments you will see a blue

screen. To setup Windows NT now, press ENTER.

3. Press S to skip Windows NT Setup's auto detection of your SCSI adapter.

4. Press S again to specify an additional device.

5. Press ENTER to select Others, and insert the Adaptec 7800 Family Manager Set

v3.01 diskette.

6a. For non-Ultra2 host adapters, Select the "Adaptec AHA290x/291x/294x/394x/

4944/AIC78xx PCI SCSI Controller(NT 4.0)" and press ENTER or

6b. For Ultra2 host adapters, Select the "Adaptec AHA-294xU2/AIC-7890/91 PCI

Ultra2 SCSI Controller(NT 4.0)" and press ENTER.

7. If you want to add other host adapters (that are not a part of the 7800 Family), do

so at this time by pressing 'S' and repeating step 5 for each additional adapter
and inserting the appropriate disk provided by the hardware manufacturer. The
Adaptec 7800 Family host adapters use the same driver; it is not necessary to
install the AIC78XX.SYS or AIC78U2.SYS driver again.

8. Press ENTER to continue with the Windows NT operating system setup. Follow

the instructions given on screen and in the Windows NT installation documenta-
tion.
