Using Advanced Configuration Parameters
Advanced users may use software parameters to alter the configuration of the
Windows 2000 device drivers supplied by HP. All Windows 2000 configuration
information is stored in a data structure supplied by Windows 2000, called the
Registry. You can edit this information through a tool called the Registry Editor
.
Using Windows 2000 SCSI Parameters
Follow the instructions below to enter the registry values that affect how the
Windows 2000 SCSI manager interprets the generic configuration information of
SCSI device drivers. Each driver has its own key reference in the registry. In this
example, the Ultra160 key is used (adpu160m). The other keys are aic78xx, aic78u2,
adf6u160, and 2930u2. All SCSI host adapters supported by the modified key are
affected by the values you enter here. A list of valid values follows:
CAUTION Do not edit your registry unless it is absolutely necessary. If
there is an error in your registry, your computer may become
nonfunctional.
NOTE The following value keys are case-sensitive and must be
entered exactly as shown.
