I. LSI SCSI Driver Installation

LSI Logic and Microsoft together provided miniport drivers, “SYM_HI.SYS” (for

SYM53C896) and “LSI_U3.SYS” (for SYM53C1010). The SCSI chipset used on

your motherboard will depend on the model you purchased. The following sections

describe how to prepare and install the SCSI drivers. Since Windows NT 4.0 do not

have drivers for such new SCSI controllers, the user must load the driver manually

prior to Windows NT 4.0 installation.

A. Preparing a LSI Driver Diskette

The drivers are located on the ASUS Driver Support CD at:

\SDMS\DRIVERS\WINNT\XXXXX\I386\WINNT\MINIPORT

where XXXXX represents the specific Windows NT subdirectory. For example, the

SYM_HI.SYS driver is located in the WINNTHI subdirectory. Copy the I386 and

MINIPORT subdirectories to the root directory of a clean floppy diskette. Use this

driver diskette during Windows NT installation. (-or-) Use the self-extracting image

files for Windows NT drivers.

The SYM_HI.SYS executable driver is located on the ASUS Driver Support CD at:

\SDMS\DISKIMAG\NT_HI

The LSI_U3.SYS executable driver is located on the ASUS Driver Support CD at:

\SDMS\DISKIMAG\NT_U3

B. New System Installation

This procedure installs the SYM_HI.SYS or LSI_U3.SYS driver onto a Windows

NT system. Use this procedure when installing Windows NT onto an unused SCSI

drive. Windows NT automatically adds the driver to the registry and copies the driver

to the appropriate directory. There are two method to install the Windows NT system.

One is installed by booting from NT CD Disc; the other is by booting from NT three

installation floppy diskettes.
