2183E Windows NT Device Driver Installation
If installing with a CDROM Drive.
- It is necessary that the CDROM drive be situated as a
slave on the primary port, since the built-in ATAPI.SYS
will NOT recognize the secondary port.
- Once installation is complete, rename the built-in
ATAPI.SYS driver to ATAPI.ORG. Then copy the DTC
ATAPI.SYS driver in place of the built-in ATAPI.SYS.
- C:\WINNT35\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS> REN ATAPI.SYS
ATAPI.ORG
- C:\WINNT35\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS> COPY A:\ATAPI.SYS
NOTE: CDROM driver (provided by drive
manufacturer) must ATAPI 1.2 compliant.
- Reboot
- The CDROM can now be reconfigured to the secondary port
if so desired.
If installing w/o a CDROM Drive.
- Once installation is complete, rename the built-in
ATDISK.SYS driver to ATDISK.ORG. Then copy the DTC
ATDISK.SYS driver in place of the built-in ATDISK.SYS.
- C:\WINNT35\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS> REN ATDISK.SYS
ATDISK.ORG
- C:\WINNT35\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS> COPY
A:\ATDISK.SYS
- Reboot
NOTE: If installing Windows NT with a CDROM Drive
attached, Windows NT will automatically load the built-in
ATAPI.SYS driver, and NOT the built-in ATDISK.SYS driver. Only
ONE driver can be enabled.
