Post subject: NT Server 4 Setup, Drivers...
Archived from groups: microsoft>public>windowsnt>setup (more info?)

Hi, i'm attempting to setup NT server 4 and can't get past a stage
where you hit F6 and it comes up asking for "mass storage drivers" and
"to specify additional drivers hit s" etc, does anyone know what
drivers it is asking for? there is no SCSI card in the system or
seperate controller card, only a Riva TNT 32mb video card, 1 x 6gb HD
partitioned into 2gb drives and a DVD rom drive, the motherboard is a
ASUS P4S800 ( there's no NT drivers for chipset etc on the website only
the LAN driver ) with a celeron 2.8ghz.

Many thanks

peter.

It needs the serial ATA drivers. Look in the motherboard CD for the
drivers, they might be shown as RAID drivers. Also, if you have an
Hyper-Threading chip on the board go in the BIOS and disable HT. NT4
cannot use HT properly if it can use it at all.

what am i missing here ??
iirc first Serial drives were 36GB ??

whilst NT-4 should have no
problem with 6GB drives

may i suggest that perhaps the Prior
partition (NTFS 2000/XP ??) was/is
the problem ??
