[win2000 setup] SMART-2 array controller

[Simkin]

I am trying to upgrade my Compaq proliant server from NT4 to NT5 but get the error message that no hard drive has been installed, which is ofcource not true.

I browsed the Compaq knowledge database and found the following sollution:
2. Create Disk 2 of Supplement Software for NT 4.0/Supplemental Diskette for Windows 2000

I tried to locate the Supplemental Diskette for Windows 2000 and found/made several dos disks containing drivers, sadly none are working.
Windows keeps asking for the file TXTSETUP.OEM

I am at a loss what to do and any advice/feedback is welcome.
Maby this issue sounds familiar to anyone?

i\'m guessing you don\'t have a Compaq SmartStart CD on you.  That would make it a heck of a lot easier.

Here is the txtsetup.oem provided by SmartStart which should load any and all proliant array controller drivers.

You shouldn\'t need this unless you an unattended install though.  Normally, you\'d just press F6 on Win2000 Install to add 3rd party SCSI drivers and point to the disk provided by compaq.  The disk should contain the .CAT .SYS and .INF files for your array controller.

Also, upgrade from NT 4.0 to Win2000?? ewww.. never upgrade.
