AAA-131CA Installation and Hardware Guide Installing the Array1000CA Driver for Windows NT This section explains how to install the Adaptec Array1000CA Miniport Driver (cda1000.sys) for Windows NT. To begin driver installation, see either Installing the Driver When Installing Windows NT below, or Installing the Driver When Windows NT is Already Installed on page 4-4. Note: We recommend that you install your Windows NT operating system on a bootable array to take advantage of the performance or redundancy features of the array. Installing the Driver When Installing Windows NT To install the cda1000.sys driver when you are installing Windows NT, follow the instructions below for the version of Windows NT you are installing. Note: If you have multiple arrays, we recommend temporarily powering off all devices except for the boot array before installing Windows NT; otherwise, Windows NT limits the size of the partitions you can create to 1 GByte. When Windows NT installation is complete, power on all devices and reboot the system. Windows NT 3.51 To install the cda1000.sys driver when you are installing Windows NT 3.51, follow these steps: 1 If you are installing Windows NT from a floppy drive, locate the Windows NT Setup Disk 1 for Floppy Installation. If you are installing from a CD-ROM drive, locate the Windows NT Setup Disk 1 for CD-ROM Installation. 2 Insert the diskette into drive A (not drive B) and turn ON your computer. When prompted, insert Windows NT Disk 2. 3 From the Welcome to Setup Screen, press Enter to set up Windows NT. 4-2
