SUMMARY
Specifying a third-party controller driver during Setup should be necessary only if Windows 2000 does not contain a driver for your SCSI adapter, CD-ROM drive, or special disk controller, or if Setup does not detect your hardware correctly.

MORE INFORMATION
To select a third-party controller during Setup:


 * 1) During the first phase of Setup, at the "Setup is inspecting your computer's hardware configuration" screen, press the F6 key.
 * 2) Press S to specify an additional driver. You are prompted for the manufacturer-supplied disk.
 * 3) After all additional drivers have been specified, press ENTER to continue with Setup.
