Installation Overview
This section provides the information that you need to install and use the Dell SCSI drivers for the 78xx series of SCSI controllers with Windows
NT.
The Windows NT 4.0 driver diskette that you create for the Microsoft Windows NT Server operating system contains the files that you need for
driver installation. The scsi subdirectory on the diskette contains the following files to be used with Windows NT:
l
adpu160m.sys — Adaptec's 7899 Ultra 160/m driver for Windows NT
l aic78xx.sys — Adaptec's 78xx series driver for Windows NT
l oemsetup.inf — A file used by Windows NT Setup for driver installation
l readme.txt — A text file describing the Adaptec 78xx driver for Windows NT
If you are installing Windows NT for the first time, see " Installing Windows NT and the Driver for the First Time " to begin driver installation. If
Windows NT is already installed in your system, see " Using Windows NT to Install or Update the Driver ."
Installing Windows NT and the Driver for the First Time
Windows NT 4.0 has SCSI drivers for the Adaptec 78xx series of SCSI controllers integrated into the operating system. When you load the
operating system software, the drivers are automatically loaded. However, Dell recommends that you update the aic78xx.sys driver by using the
diskette of drivers that you created from the Dell OpenManage Server Assistant CD. To install or update the aic78xx.sys driver for Windows NT
4.0, see the next subsection.
