Microsoft Windows-NT Driver Installation
Overview
The Initio INI-9100U/9100UW host adapter will support Windows-NT
v3.5x/4.0 with the addition of a software driver. A software driver allows the
host computer the ability to transfer data over the SCSI bus. The device driver
for Windows-NT is copied from the Initio driver installation diskette to your
hard drive where it is loaded onto the computing system during installation.
The following files are used for installation and may be found on the INITIO
INI-9100U/9100UW DRIVER DISK 1:
