Set Mainboard CMOS Setup
The Adaptec ATA RAID 1200A card is a PCI Plug and Play device.
Therefore, you should not have to make any changes to the system
CMOS. The system should automatically assign the Interrupt and
Port address. To set the Adaptec ATA RAID 1200A card to be the
bootable controller, confirm in the system CMOS that the drive
types for on-board IDE controller drives are set to Not Installed or
None
. Alternatively, you can use the Boot to SCSI option if this
setting is available.
