•
Verify the BIOS drive type. Make sure that you entered the
correct drive type or translation geometry in the BIOS setup
program. The drive capacity and number of sectors specified
in the BIOS must not exceed the specifications shown in the
table on page 7. If the drive type is incorrect, you must rerun
the system setup program. Then partition and high-level
format the drive again.
•
Check for I/O address conflicts. To isolate an address
conflict, first verify that the drive and host adapter are com-
patible with your system by disconnecting all other peripherals
except the video card. Then install the drive and host adapter,
and test the system. Next, install the other peripherals, one at
a time, until the conflict reappears. After you have isolated the
source of the address conflicts, you can resolve the conflict
by changing the I/O address of the peripheral that appears to
cause the conflict.
•
Check the power supply. The output of your power supply
may not be sufficient to meet the power requirements of the
new devices you have installed. If you are not sure whether
your power supply meets your system requirements, consult
your computer dealer or distributor.
•
Check your DOS version. You must use the same version
of DOS (we recommend MS-DOS Version 5.0 or later)
throughout all phases of building and configuring your com-
puter system.
•
Check for viruses. Use the latest version of a reliable virus-
checking program to scan your computer’s memory, hard
discs and any suspect diskettes for viruses. Run the virus-
checking program if you encounter inexplicable disc errors or
damage to disc partitions. Also, before installing any new
software, scan the installation diskettes for viruses.
