3.1 Introduction
Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Millennium Edition (Me) are
operating systems designed to run on Intel processors using current
technology. This chapter refers to Windows 95, Windows 98, and
Windows Me as Windows 95/98/Me in many instances.
Windows 95/98/Me provides a graphical user interface (GUI)
environment incorporating many high-level features. Refer to the
Microsoft Windows 95/98/Me documentation for more details. An I/O
manager handles I/O requests by going through the appropriate drivers
to address a SCSI peripheral.
Windows 95/98/Me provides class drivers for hard disk, floptical,
CD-ROM, printer, and scanner peripherals. Other class drivers, provided
by peripheral manufacturers, are added to support new devices.
Microsoft provides the port driver and LSI Logic provides the miniport
drivers, which are called
SYMC8XX.MPD , SYM_HI.MPD , and SYM_U3.MPD .
