I need to upgrade NT workstation 3.51 to 4.0 on a DECpc 566.
The PC has a NCR PCI 53c810 SCSI controller.
Installation setup requests I:
(a.) provide a diskette from manufacture with appropriate drivers or
(b.) select driver from a list that includes NCR 53c710, but not
53c810.
I tried (a.) with the old OEM disk (nt 3.1?) and it barfed.
Any ideas on where to obtain a diskette with the appropriate scsi driver?
Setup.txt indicates that this doesn't occur with a fresh installation,
just a 3.51 upgrade, so the raw material is probably on the CD.

| 6081.1 | try Symbios Logic 810 | ANGST::legoe.zko.dec.com::angst.zko.dec.com::marshall | Fri Jun 06 1997 05:29 | 12 | |
The driver for the NCR 810 is on the standard NT CD-ROM and NT should detect the scsi controller if the machine is working correctly. I used to have a DECpc XL 466 with an onboard NCR 810 chip and at home I currently have a system with an ASUS SC200 which is built around this chip. NT has detected both. There is one possible point of confusion. After NCR was taken over by AT&T the semiconductor division, which makes these chips was spun off and is now know as Symbios Logic. NT 4.0 identifies the 810 chip as a Symbios Logic 810, not as an NCR 810. Chris Marshall | |||||
