SYMPTOMS
========

If you attempt to install the driver for the HP FC10/FC20 controller from the
Drvlib directory, Windows NT 4.0 may prompt for a disk labeled "HP Driver Disk."

CAUSE
=====

The driver as included in the Drvlib directory on the Windows NT 4.0 compact
disc does not include a tagfile required by the Oemsetup.inf file. As a result,
the Oemsetup.inf file requests that the user insert a disk called the "HP Driver
Disk" because it cannot locate the tagfile.

WORKAROUND
==========

To work around this problem:

1. Copy all of the files that are located in the directory
  Drvlib\Storage\Fenb\Cms to a floppy disk.

2. Copy the file Oemdisk1.w to the floppy disk from the directory
  Drvlib\Storage\Fenb\Conner.

3. Rename the Oemdisk1.w file on the floppy to Hpcmsnt.w.

4. Install the driver using the Control Panel Tape Devices tool. Be sure to use
  the Have disk... option and specify the path to the floppy disk drive
  containing the driver files.

5. Proceed with the driver installation by supplying necessary configuration
  information as prompted.
