If you are installing the 3ware RAID controller on a system that already has
the operating system installed on another drive, follow the instructions in this
section, depending on the version of Windows installed on your system:
• “To install the 3ware driver under Windows 2000” on page 32
• “To install the 3ware driver under Windows XP or 2003” on page 34

When you start Windows after installing a 3ware RAID controller, Windows
recognizes it as a Plug and Play device, and brings up the Found New
Hardware Wizard. This wizard guides you through installing the 3ware
driver (see Figure 15). Note that you will see screens for the installation of
two drivers during this process.
