Windows
This procedure installs the SYMMPI.SYS driver onto a new or existing
Windows 2000 system. You will receive a driver diskette that contains all
the drivers for the various Windows operating systems with your system
purchase or as part of your upgrade kit. This driver may also be found on the
CD that shipped with your system or may be found at the Dell support
website at support.dell.com. This driver diskette will provide a choice for
which driver version to install. You will use this diskette during the
installation process.

New System Installation

This procedure installs the SYMMPI.SYS driver onto a Windows 2000
system. Use this procedure when installing Windows 2000 software onto an
unused drive. Windows 2000 software automatically adds the driver to the
registry and copies the driver to the appropriate directory.
The method for installing Windows 2000 software on a new system involves
using a CD.
CD Installation
Start the Windows 2000 installation by booting from the Windows
1
2000 CD.
The system BIOS must support booting from a CD. BIOS settings
may need to be changed to allow CD booting.
Please refer to your system documentation.
Press <F6> to install the SYMMPI.SYS driver when the screen
2
displays
"Windows 2000 Setup".
NOTE: You must press <F6> in order for the new driver to be recognized.
Otherwise, the system does not recognize the devices controlled by the driver
during the Windows setup.
Choose S to specify an additional device when the screen displays
3
"Setup could not determine the type of one or more mass
storage devices...".
NOTE: If this screen is not displayed as the first user input, then the <F6>
key press was not seen by the setup program. Reboot the system and try again.
