Drivers 

Tab

adapter driver has been started. It will say

, try reloading the driver software 

as described in Chapter 4 of this manual.

If it is started, go back to the 

Devices

 tab of 

the SCSI adapters utility window and double 
click on the ATTO ExpressPCI host adapter 
description, and then on the bus it is 
assigned to. All of the external devices 
connected in the loop should be identified. 
If they do not appear in the 

Device List

, the 

external devices or connection are not 
working properly.

If the card has been recently re-flashed with 

new firmware, the new NT driver must be 
installed.

For Intel-based PCs, check the computer 

CMOS setup and verify that the PCI slots 
are configured correctly. Procedures vary 
greatly: refer to the manual supplied with 
your system or call the computer supplier 
for configuration assistance. 

If these suggestions do not solve the 

problem, re-flash the host adapter and re-
install the Windows NT driver. 

Macintosh

Power up Fibre Channel drives before 

booting up your machine. If the Macintosh 
host is powered up before the drives, the 
drives may not automatically mount 
(depending on when the drives were 
powered on).

Re-flash the card using the updater program 

(See Chapter 4). Select the unconditional 
flash option when attempting to re-flash 
the host adapter.
