SCSI Select Utility
Select the SCSI Select utility at boot up. Press
Ctrl-A
as soon as the SCSI utility
information appears on the screen. If the BIOS information appears, reboot, as
the system has gone past the SCSI utility screen.
Use the SCSI Select utility to set drive termination, new SCSI ID number,
configure the host adapter, or format a new SCSI drive.
To set a new SCSI ID, select the SCSI Device Configuration menu. With the
arrow keys, select Send Start Unit Command. Change the unit ID number from
No
to
Yes.
BIOS Update Utility
The system BIOS resides on a flash ROM in the system. The flash ROM can be
updated, should it become necessary. This feature allows the ROM BIOS chip to
be flashed with new BIOS code through software, rather than replacing the chip.
Update the BIOS with a BIOS flash diskette containing the latest version of the
BIOS code. The diskette can be obtained from NEC Computer Systems Division
or the latest BIOS can be downloaded from the NEC CSD Bulletin Board
System (BBS) onto a diskette. The BIOS can also be downloaded from the
NEC CSD website. (See Section 9, “NEC CSD Information Services,” for
procedures on downloading a file.)
