Installation under Windows 95, 98, ME
5.1 General Information
Windows 95,98 as
well as Windows ME
have a built-in
standardised SCSI
interface that allows you
to adapt your specific
hardware to the diffe-
rent SCSI hostadapters.
Hardware adaptation is
done by driver
„DC2964.MPD“ located
in the „\WIN95-98“
directory on your
installation diskette. The
file „DC2964.INF“ (also
stored in the „\WIN95-
98“ directory) controls
the Windows Installer.
The device drivers required for running CD-ROM or removable disk drives etc.
are part of the Windows operating system providing an automatic setup procedure
which much facilitates the installation process.
Windows will recognize your SCSI hostadapter automatically during the first
booting. In the dialog "new hardware found" you have to chose for installation "driver
on producers disc". Then select the "Browse" option; the installation files are located
in the „\WIN95-98“ directory on your installation diskette. When you have specified the
drive and folder, Windows displays a dialog indicating the exact type and name of your
SCSI hostadapter.
PCI SCSI hostadapters are automatically configured by the PCI BIOS, i.e. the
SCSI hostadapter is assigned a free interrupt and a free I/O address which cannot be
changed via Windows’ Device Manager.
After PC restart the SCSI hostadapter and all SCSI devices connected to it will
be listed in Windows’ Device Manager. Should Windows have recognized your SCSI
hostadapter and installed the appropriate driver automatically, we still recommend
using the driver contained in the hostadapter package. Start Control Panel, double-
click the System icon, choose Device Manager, and select the icon representing the
installed SCSI hostadapter. Then activate the Drivers tab and choose the Other Driver
or Updated Driver option to install the original driver delivered on diskette.
