Removing a PCI expansion-card SCSI controller is as simple as physically removing it from its slot when your computer is shut down. Windows NT boots and functions properly in this configuration, but a warning message is generated every time you boot Windows NT. To eliminate the warning message, you must update the Windows NT software configuration as follows: There is a brief pause while Windows NT Setup scans your hardware configuration. The SCSI Adapter setup program displays a list of all host adapters currently installed. Because SCSI device drivers are loaded during system bootup and because they may be needed to load Windows NT itself, a message may appear warning you that Windows NT may not start if you remove the SCSI adapter. The changes you have made will not take effect until the computer is restarted. If this message does not appear, no changes have been made to the Windows NT system configuration. NOTE: The Windows NT Setup program does not delete the device driver from your hard-disk drive; it only updates Windows NT software configuration information so that the device driver is no longer loaded during system start-up.
