When an SCM 301 CAMAC controller module is connected to the computer and the system is started, the OS requests a driver but there is no driver in the Kmax distribution that is appropriate for the module.  Where is the driver?

Kmax avoids modifying the system directories by loading all its drivers from the Kmax directory at compile-time.  When Windows XP boots the Plug-N-Play (PNP) process detects new hardware and starts the "Found New Hardware Wizard" to load the appropriate drivers.  Just cancel the dialogs and continue.  Kmax will load the appropriate drivers when you compile a toolsheet that needs them.   On Windows-based workstations, you will need to make sure that the WINASPI layer is properly installed.  See Adaptec's website for installation instructions.
