Hi,
I am installing NT server 4.0 with no success at all. I have two HD SEAGATE ST39175LW Adaptec AIC-7890.

I have the right drivers. But, when the system reboots after doing the installation. It says that it can't load the OS.

Any suggestions, please?
ASAP
thanks

Currently, only Windows 2000 can auto-detect the AIC7890 controller during installation. You shouldn't install Windows NT server 4.0 directly from the NT boot CD, it will fail to detect the HDDs even when you have loaded the AI7890 driver. Use the three installation floppy diskettes to install NT 4.0 system. While using the floppies, you must manually load the AIC7890 driver into NT 4.0 system by yourself.
