stop: inaccessible_boot_device
This is a discussion about stop: inaccessible_boot_device in the Windows Hardware category; Hi, I still try to solve my W2k installation problem. I am using a DFI K6BV3+ with a K6-3 450MHz and an Adaptec 29160 SCSI controller with a WD 18300 Ultra2 LVD disk. I have tried a lot of things, but I get always the stop error: inaccessible_boot_device.
Hi,
I still try to solve my W2k installation problem.
I am using a DFI K6BV3+ with a K6-3 450MHz and an Adaptec 29160 SCSI controller with a WD 18300 Ultra2 LVD disk.
I have tried a lot of things, but I get always the stop error: inaccessible_boot_device. This sounds strange, because this error occurs during the windows sartup.
Has anyone an idea?
Cheers

Inaccessable boot device usually means that NT was unable to detect your scsi card. If you look at Adaptec's website, they have instructions for installing drivers from floppy during NT setup - I think you have to press F5 to specify additional device drivers. At this point you need to insert a floppy containing the scsi drivers. These have to be set up a special way so NT can read them - again Adaptec's website has instructions on how to do this.
