Windows will copy the install file (inf) into the system.
11. Go back to Control Panel.
12. Select System.
13. Pick the Device Manager tab.
14. Expand the Hard Disk Controller item.
15. Select Standard Dual IDE controller (or the like).
16. Select Remove.
Windows will now remove the default IDE controller. It may tell you
that you now need to reboot, if so say yes. If it does not ask you,
do a manual shutdown and reboot windows.
Upon reboot Windows will say that it is locating new hw. It will
identify it as the 5530 IDE primary controller and try to locate the
driver for it. It will fail to locate it and prompt you to insert
the install disk. Put the floppy back in and type a: into the path
dialog box. Windows will copy the driver. Windows will then tell
you that you need to restart the system, do so.
Upon the next reboot, Windows will again go thru the locating new
hw, this time for the Secondary controller. Only this time you do
not need to put in the floppy as it already has the driver.
{NOTE!! in both of these times, especially for the secondary the
machine may seem dead for ~ 30sec. Just wait it will come back)
Finally after the next reboot, the driver is installed. You can
check by going back to the Control Panel-System Device Manager tab
and looking under the Hard Disk Controllers item. There will be a "Cyrix 5530 Bus Master PCI to IDE Controller" entry here. There will also be entries for the primary and secondary controllers.
