I had the exact same "problem" yesterday, when I installed my brand
new AHA 2940AU :} The solution is very simple: you need to install the
driver from the Adaptec SCSI driver disk that you got with your card.
Do the following:

 Select the line with the yellow exclamation point in your Device
Manager and click on Properties. Click the "Driver" tab -- you will
probably see that it says "Provider: Microsoft" and "Version: 1.0" or
something like that. Click the "Change Driver" button and insert your
Adaptec disk 1 in your floppy drive. Type in "A:\Win95" and click OK.
Select the AHA 2940AU driver and click OK. Restart your computer and
that's it :) Now you will see that the provider is Adaptec and the
driver version should be v1.30 -- and, more importantly, no more
exlamation point.
