Updating the QL2x00IP NDIS Network Driver
Perform the following steps if a QL2x00IP NDIS network driver is already installed
and you want to install an updated version of the driver:
1. Open a DOS command prompt window.
2. Change the current directory to the Windows NT driver directory. For
example:
cd \Winnt\System32\Drivers
3. Make a backup copy of the old driver. You can copy the file into the same
directory with a .SAV extension indicating that it is the saved file. For
example:
copy Ql2x00ip.sys Ql2x00ip.sav
4. Insert the disk that contains the updated QLogic driver in an appropriate
drive.
5. Copy the new driver over the old driver. For example:
copy A:\Nt\Ip\Ql2x00ip.sys
