hate to say on that, but, I know that I always only use the ms drivers to load a new install with and than use the manf.'s
it's kind of like using ford parts on a chevy. some time they fit , some time they don't. but, if this is on a co. server ?? I would try it on a test machine first !! have you been to the Adaptec site

No offense taken – are you aware of any problems that may occur when replacing the drivers from MS to Adaptec.

please don't take this the wrong way. I have made my income since 1981 and full time since 1989 from uncle bill. the only reason that you should ever use the drivers that came with windows is!! if you can't locate or have the hardware drivers from the makers of the items at question.

 

they put there drivers in there for the newbies that are doing the installs. most of the time a hardware conflict is cause from drives ect.

 

this comment is only made from someone that makes money from people that don't use manf. drivers or update there drivers after a o/s install.

Anyone have problems with the MS drivers for the 2940UW in NT 4 – I’ve got a backup problem that has plagued me for long time and the Adaptec drivers are the only thing I have not replaced (yet).

So you install Windows 2K using Microsoft drivers? I need my servers up and solid. I'll use the mfg. drivers over MS any day.

Adaptec 2940UW drivers are native to W2K.

Have you tried install the MFG. drivers for the SCSI card using F6 during the install?

Goodmorning All,

 

I've been working on installing W2K Pro on a test box and I continually receive an error during the setup process.

 

I am able to get to the portion of the CD install where it begins copying files to the hard drive.  However, each time at about 17% or 18% of the process I receive an error that a particular file cannot be copied to the hard drive.  I can hit retry and the same message reappears.  The message further states that there is something wrong with the CD and if the error persists to call MS Support.

 

The test system is a P3/600 with 2 SCSI drives running off of an Adaptec 2940UW controller.  I have swapped all of the parts out:  SCSI cables, IDE cable for the CD, the actual CD and I've also used 3 different copies of W2K Professional on CD.

 

I really don't want to call MS.  Anyone have any suggestions?

 

TIA

 

Ron
