Additional Notes

This is a self extracting BIOS Upgrade file for the

HP OEM Adaptec AHA-2940 Ultra SCSI card. It's

version 1.23 which is what I put for the driver

version: field. The copyright date according to

the DISK.TXT file contained within is HP 1996 &

Adaptec 1997. This is the final BIOS Upgrade for

this particular OEM Adaptec Ultra SCSI card.

It also works with the retail version of the

Adaptec AHA-2940UW but you should only use

it if you're experiencing strange

behavior/unexplained bugs while using either a

newer but not final/current BIOS or the current

final BIOS as listed on Adaptec's Support site for

that particular SCSI card. If that ever happens I

would also recommend you e-mail Adaptec's

Tech Support so they know about it s

Step 2 - Install Your Driver

Once you have downloaded your new driver, you'll need to install it. In Windows, use a built-in utility called Device Manager, which allows you to see all of the devices recognized by your system, and the drivers associated with them.

How to Open Device Manager

  • In Windows 11, Windows 10 & Windows 8.1, right-click the Start menu and select Device Manager

  • In Windows 8, swipe up from the bottom, or right-click anywhere on the desktop and choose "All Apps" -> swipe or scroll right and choose "Control Panel" (under Windows System section) -> Hardware and Sound -> Device Manager

  • In Windows 7, click Start -> Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Device Manager

  • In Windows Vista, click Start -> Control Panel -> System and Maintenance -> Device Manager

  • In Windows XP, click Start -> Control Panel -> Performance and Maintenance -> System -> Hardware tab -> Device Manager button

How to Install a driver from Device Manager

  1. Locate the device and model that is having the issue and double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.

  2. Select the Driver tab.

  3. Click the Update Driver button and follow the instructions.

In most cases, you will need to reboot your computer in order for the driver update to take effect.

Tech Tip: Driver downloads and updates come in a variety of file formats with different file extensions. For example, you may have downloaded an EXE, INF, ZIP, or SYS file. Each file type has a slighty different installation procedure to follow.
