SCSI Driver Installation

Windows NT 4.0 do not have drivers for the new SCSI controllers, you
must load the driver manually prior to Windows NT 4.0 installation.

A. Preparing an LSI Driver Disk

Copy all the files and subdirectory under the WINNT subdirectory to the
root directory of a clean floppy disk. Use this LSI driver disk during
installation, or use the self-extracting image files for Windows NT drivers.

The SYMMPI.SYS executable driver is in the support CD at:

\Drivers\SCSI\Fusion-MP\Windows\1.08.22\WinNT\WinNT.exe

B. New System Installation

This procedure installs the SYMMPI.SYS driver onto a Windows NT
system. Use this procedure when installing Windows NT onto an unused
SCSI drive. Windows NT automatically adds the driver to the registry and
copies the driver to the appropriate directory. There are two methods to
install the Windows NT system. One is installed by booting from NT CD
Disc; the other is by booting from NT three installation floppy disks.

B1. CD-ROM Installation

1.

Start the Windows NT installation by booting from the Windows NT
CD-ROM. The system BIOS must support booting from a CD-ROM.
LSI BIOS settings may need to be changed to allow CD-ROM booting
when using SCSI-interface CD-ROM drive.

2.

When the screen displays “Windows NT Setup”, immediately press
the F6 key. This must be done or else the new driver installed from
the LSI driver disk will not be recognized.

Even if you did not press F6, you are still allowed to load additional
drivers later in the installation process. However, any drivers loaded
during Windows NT Setup are not immediately recognized and no
devices controlled by that driver are available during Windows NT
Setup.
