Troubleshooting Q & A – Windows 95/98 Only
When I start Windows 95/98, the system locks up when the Windows logo
displays. How can I get the system to start so that I can verify that the SCSI
card is functioning normally?
1
Start or restart your computer. View the messages that appear.
2
When this message appears:
Starting Windows 95/98
press and release
F8
while the text is on your screen
3
From the menu that displays, select
Safe Mode
. (It may take
extra time for Windows to load.)
4
Verify that the SCSI Card 2930CU software driver is loading
properly (see the information in the next question).
Why is there a yellow “!” beside my driver(s) in Device Manager?
The yellow “
!”
may appear for many reasons. Use the table to
troubleshoot this problem. The easiest problem to solve is listed first.
How do I check for faulty cables, termination, or damaged device?
1
Turn off your computer and disconnect the cables from the SCSI
card.

Turn on your computer, restart Windows, and verify that the
yellow “!” disappeared from Device Manager.
If the yellow “!” disappeared, the cabling, termination, or device is
faulty, or there may be an IRQ conflict in your system.
