3ware Escalade ATA RAID Controller User Guide Q13: I am experiencing problems when I try to install the ATA RAID controller with a server that has been configured with a floppy-based version of Windows NT 4.0. What is going on? Beginning with version 1.08.00.008 of the Windows NT driver, there is an additional installation step needed when installing a Escalade ATA RAID Controller with Windows NT 4.0. If you are installing Windows NT 4.0 with the ATA RAID controller using the Windows NT 4.0 Setup diskettes, you must use a particular 3ware installation diskette, which has the 3ware driver and an install.exe program. This program installs an application, which provides shutdown notification to our controller. A limitation with the Microsoft floppy-based NT installation makes this extra step necessary. Note: When installing Windows NT 4.0 exclusively from CD-ROM this extra step is not needed. Follow these additional instructions: 1 Install Windows NT 4.0 as documented in this manual. 2 Go to the Start menu, click on Settings and open the Control Panel. 3 Complete all steps including those described in the section labeled "Follow display instructions to complete Windows NT 4.0 installation" on page 72. 4 Perform the following steps: a. Log on to Windows NT 4.0 as Administrator. b. Insert the 3ware installation diskette with the install.exe program into the floppy drive. c. Choose Start > Run from the taskbar and enter the following command: A:\INSTALL.EXE Note: Alternatively, a command window can be opened into which you can type the command at a prompt. 174 www.3ware.com
