5. Motherboard Driver Installation 1. Microsoft Windows NT Server 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. 5. Driver Installation WinNT4.0 Server ASUS CUR-DLS User's Manual 69

and “LSI_U3.SYS”
(
for

. 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

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
