Installing the Driver on an Existing Windows 2000 System
WARNING: If you wish to use the existing Windows 2000 hard drive that will be
configured in the Mirrored array as a boot drive, do NOT connect the hard drive
to the RAID IDE connector yet. You must complete the installation first with the
hard drive connected to a standard IDE connector. After you’re done with the
installation, connect the drive to the RAID IDE connector.
After rebooting the system, the “New Hardware Found” dialog box will appear and “PCI
RAID Controller” will be displayed.
1. In the dialog box, select “Driver from disk provided by hardware manufacturer”.
2. Insert the “Promise 20276 RAID Driver” floppy disk (included in the system board
package) into a floppy drive.
3. Type “A:\WIN2000” in the text box then press <Enter>.
4. Choose “Win2000 Promise MBFastTrak133 Lite Controller” from the list that appears on
screen, then press the <Enter> key.
5. The Windows 2000 Setup screen will appear showing “Setup will load support for the
following mass storage devices – Win2000 Promise MBFastTrak133 Lite controller”.
The driver will now be copied onto the system and entered into the Windows 2000
driver database.
6. When the "System Settings Change" dialog box appears, remove the floppy diskette
and click <Yes> to restart the system. Windows 2000 will then restart for the driver to
take effect.
7. Power off your system, then attach the hard drives to the RAID IDE connector.
Confirming Windows 2000 Installation
1. In Windows 2000, open the Control Panel from “My Computer” then double-click the
System icon.
2. Click the “Hardware” tab, then click the “Device Manager” tab.
3. Click “+” that is next to “SCSI & RAID Controllers hardware type.” “Win2000 Promise
FastTrak/FastTrak133-Lite Controller” will appear.
