Windows NT
Installation
When Windows NT is installed using a bootable CD, the devices on the
MegaRAID SCSI 320-2 are not recognized until after the initial reboot. The
Microsoft documented workaround is in SETUP.TXT, which is on the CD.
Perform the following steps to install drivers when Setup recognizes a
supported SCSI host adapter but doesn’t make the devices attached to it
available for use:
1. Restart Windows NT Setup.
2. Press <F6> to prevent Windows NT Setup from performing disk controller
detection when Windows NT Setup displays the following:
Setup is inspecting your computer's hardware configuration...,
This allows you to install the driver from the drivers disk you created. All
SCSI adapters must be installed manually.
3. Press <S> to display a list of supported SCSI host adapters when Windows
NT Setup displays the following:
Setup could not determine the type of one or more mass storage
devices installed in your system, or you have chosen to
manually specify an adapter,
4. Select Other from the bottom of the list.
5. Insert the drivers disk you made when prompted to do so and select Mega-
RAID from this list.
In some cases, Windows NT Setup repeatedly prompts to swap disks.
Windows NT will recognize any devices attached to this adapter.
6. Repeat this step for each host adapter not already recognized by Windows
NT Setup.
