Installation of a SCSI Drive in Windows NT
This section gives some details about software installation in Windows NT.
Install Hardware
Before installing software drivers, install the SCSI interface board and PlexWriter
hardware. Check that all the cable connections between your PlexWriter drive and
PC are correct and that all switches, dials, and termination are set properly. If you are
using a PlexWriter external drive, turn the power switch to OFF. Once the drive
installation is complete, remember to turn the drive’s power ON before turning your
computer on.
Getting Drivers for Your SCSI Board
To install Windows NT support for your SCSI board from your NT CD-ROM disc,
you first need to verify that your SCSI interface board is supported by NT. Check
your NT manual for information on which SCSI interface board NT supports.
If your SCSI interface board is not on NT’s list of supported hardware, and the
necessary drivers are not the NT disc, contact your board’s manufacturer and request
an NT software device driver for the board. The files you obtain need to be added to
the NT installation floppy disk(s) that came with your NT CD-ROM disc. Your SCSI
interface board manufacturer will provide you with specific installation instructions.
Install SCSI Drivers for Windows NT
To add CD-RW drive support after NT has already been installed:
1. In Windows NT, choose Start | Settings | Control Panel | SCSI Adapters to add
support for your SCSI interface board.
2. Select Add/Remove SCSI Adapters from the menu.
3. Choose your SCSI interface board from the list or add the driver you obtained
from your SCSI interface board manufacturer.
4. Shut down your system and connect your PlexWriter to the SCSI interface board.
5. Turn ON your computer and your PlexWriter drive should now be visible to the
system.
