      • Insert the diskette with the drivers for NT.
      • After that, the installation continued as usual and worked without problems.
      • Novell NetWare 4.11
        1. SG won't list in the supported Adapters screen the Adaptec W2 PCI SCSI adapter, but if you continue will copy the rest of the new drivers required for your system, and then will prompt you to insert your Novell CD.
        2. Begin with the installation following the Novell set-up program prompts.
