I'm installing win2k over a windows 98 installation on an Intel DK440LX mainboard. It has an onboard Adaptec 7895 SCSI Host Adapter. When I did the install it told me that It didn't recognize the SCSI controller and I'd have to provide drivers. So I booted into win98 and looked in the properties and found that it had a 2940 series Adaptec controller. This must be the wrong one, tho, because I get the inaccessible boot device error. I need to change the driver, but 1) I don't know how now and 2) there is no driver on the adaptec site for a 7895 SCSI host adapter. On the intel site, they only have the driver for NT 4.0. Can I use this driver ?

The microsoft site says the AIC-7895 controller driver is included on the win2k cd. Now that I know what the right driver is, how do I find it and get it where it belongs?
