Installation
When Windows NT is installed via a bootable CD, the
devices on the MegaRAID Express 500 will not be
recognized until after the initial reboot. The Microsoft
documented workaround is in SETUP.TXT:
SETUP.TXT is on the CD
To install drivers when Setup recognizes one of the
supported SCSI host adapters without making the devices
attached to it available for use:
1 Restart Windows NT Setup.
2 When Windows NT Setup displays
Setup is inspecting your computer's
hardware configuration...,
press <F6> to prevents Windows NT Setup from
performing disk controller detection. This allows
you to install the driver from the Drivers disk you
created. All SCSI adapters must be installed
manually.
3 When Windows NT Setup displays
Setup could not determine the type
of one or more mass storage devices
installed in your system, or you
have chosen to manually specify an
adapter,
press S to display a list of supported SCSI host
adapters.
4 Select Other from the bottom of the list.
5 Insert the Drivers Disk you made when prompted
to do so and select MegaRAID Express 500 from this
list. In some cases, Windows NT Setup repeatedly
prompts to swap disks. Windows NT will now
recognize any devices attached to this adapter.
Repeat this step for each host adapter not already
recognized by Windows NT Setup.
