Using a SCSI Drive as C and Another SCSI Drive as D
•
Make sure your computer's CMOS Setup is set to Onboard IDE-Disabled, as
is required for SCSI host controllers. Also ensure Onboard SCSI Boot is
Enabled.
•
Be sure that the SCSI drive to be used as drive C is set to SCSI ID 0. Check
the disk drive manual for information on setting the SCSI ID for that device.
You can also use the SCSISelect utility to determine the SCSI addresses of
peripherals on the SCSI bus.
•
Set the SCSI drive to be used as drive D to SCSI ID 1. Check the drive
manual for information on setting the SCSI ID for that device.
•
Try enabling Include in BIOS Scan in the SCSI Device Configuration option
of the SCSISelect utility. See the section “SCSI Device Configuration”.
•
Be sure to cycle the power OFF and ON after changing any values on a SCSI
controller, in a Setup program, or on a SCSI device. This ensures that the
new initial values are loaded.
•
Be sure that SCSI parity checking is consistently enabled or disabled on all
devices on the SCSI bus.
•
Verify that the SCSI controllers and the SCSI devices are properly configured
and installed.
•
Be sure that the SCSI bus is properly terminated.
•
Be sure that, if necessary, the disk has a partition and is formatted.

Drives
•
Check SCSI parity for consistency and be sure SCSI termination is set
correctly.
•
Check cable length and integrity. Check pin-1 orientation.
•
If the SCSI controller LED remains on when the computer hangs, the host
adapter may be interfering with your computer's operation. It may be
