HP OMNIBOOK 5700CT NOTEBOOK PC - WINDOWS 3.1 OR WINDOWS FOR WORKGROUPS 3.11, INSTALLING SCSI DRIVERS INTRODUCTION The HP OmniBook 5700 Notebook PC includes Microsoft (R) Windows for Workgroups 3.11 as one choice for the preloaded and preconfigured operating system. If you install retail Windows for Workgroups 3.11 or Windows 3.1, follow these instructions to install the HP OmniBook Notebook PC SCSI drivers. NOTE: The SCSI drivers are needed only if you are using an HP OmniBook Notebook PC docking system. REQUIREMENTS * HP OmniBook 5700 Notebook PC with Microsoft Windows 3.1 or Windows for Workgroups 3.11 installed. * HP OmniBook 5700 Notebook PC SCSI drivers. Use the drivers from the hard disk in the C:\OMNIBOOK\DRIVERS\WFW\SCSI directory or from the HP OmniBook 5700 Notebook PC Recovery CD in the \OMNIBOOK\DRIVERS\WFW\SCSI directory. PROCEDURE 1. In File Manager or at the MS-DOS (R) prompt, create a directory named C:\PCSCSI. 2. Copy the SCSI driver files from the drivers disk (or from C:\OMNIBOOK\DRIVERS\WFW\SCSI or from the Recovery CD) to the C:\PCSCSI directory. 3. Open the C:\CONFIG.SYS file for editing. 4. Add the following lines into CONFIG.SYS in the order shown. (You do not need the REM'ed lines. They are simply for explanation.) REM If SCSI BIOS is enabled (SCU setting), CB00-CFFF must be excluded. REM For example, if 8K is used for PCMCIA the EMM386 line would be REM device=c:\dos\emm386.exe noems x=c000-d1ff i=d200-e7ff x=e800-efff REM and if 32K is used for PCMCIA the EMM386 line would be REM device=c:\dos\emm386.exe noems x=c000-d7ff i=d800-e7ff x=e800-efff REM Environment variable to pass SCSI status to AUTOEXEC.BAT set aspi_scsi=1 REM AMSIDA.SYS is SCSI ASPI layer. It is required for SCSI devices REM except if only a disk is being used and the SCSI BIOS is enabled REM in the SCU. Add "REM" not to load AMSIDA.SYS if no SCSI devices REM are used. devicehigh=c:\pcscsi\amsida.sys /v REM AMSIRM.SYS supports SCSI hard disk drives. REM AMSIRM.SYS does not load if AMSIDA.SYS is not loaded or no SCSI REM hard disk drives are present. device=c:\pcscsi\amsirm.sys REM AMSICD.SYS supports SCSI CD-ROM drives. REM AMSICD.SYS does not load if AMSIDA.SYS is not loaded or no SCSI REM CD-ROM drives are present. devicehigh=c:\pcscsi\amsicd.sys /d:amdcd001 5. Save the changes, then open the C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT file for editing. 6. Add the following lines into AUTOEXEC.BAT in the order shown. (You do not need the REM'ed lines. They are simply for explanation.) REM For active SCSI status... if not %aspi_scsi%.==1. goto noscsi REM Add "REM" to beginning of next line if SCSI CD-ROM drive REM not installed c:\dos\mscdex /d:amdcd001 /d:mscd001 /m:12 7. Save the changes, exit Windows, and press CTRL+ALT+DEL to reboot the HP OmniBook Notebook PC for the changes to take effect. ______________________________________________________________________ Microsoft(R) is a U.S. registered trademark of Microsoft Corporation Windows(R) or MS Windows(R) are U.S. registered trademarks of Microsoft Corp.
