require a class driver. Microsoft provides the port driver and LSI Logic
provides the miniport drivers, which are called

SYMC8XX.SYS

,

SYM_HI.SYS

, and

SYM_U3.SYS

. These drivers complete the path to an

LSI Logic controller or processor with an optional SDMS SCSI BIOS.

LSI Logic uses the same filenames for their drivers for different Windows
operating systems. The driver files are packaged either in separate
subdirectories based on the Windows operating system or on different
flex disks. To determine the driver file for Windows NT 4.0, note that the
filename ends with .

SYS

.

To determine the operating system version, go into Windows Explorer,
display the driver file, right click on the filename, click on Properties, and
click on the Version tab. Finally, click on the Internal Filename in the
lower section. For Windows NT 4.0, the filename appears as filename
(NT 4.0). For example,

SYMC8XX.SYS (NT 4.0)

.

The sections below describe these drivers and their installations.
