3. IBM Netfinity 10/100 Fault Tolerant Adapter device drivers Note: The order of installation is important. You must install the IBM Netfinity Hot Plug for Windows NT Server 4.0 package before you install the IBM Netfinity 10/100 Fault Tolerant Adapter driver. If you install the adapter device driver before the PCI Hot Plug Solution package, the adapter device driver will not recognize the hot-plug code. This happens because the adapter device driver only checks the NT registry for the Hot Plug package during installation. If the PCI Hot Plug Solution package is added after the adapter device driver is installed, the adapter must be removed and added again in order for it to detect the PCI Hot-Plug Solution code.
