Updating the adapter driver in a Windows 2000, 2003, or Windows 2008 hosts
On Windows 2000, 2003, and Windows 2008 systems where the 
QLogic adapter has been detected automatically or a driver is already 
installed, it may be necessary to update the current driver to the latest 
EMC-qualified driver, as described in this section.
The following procedure assumes that you have copied the latest 
driver from the QLogic CD-ROM or downloaded it from the QLogic 
website and put it onto a diskette. Refer to the release notes provided 
with the driver for information that might be unique to new driver 
revisions.
