Windows 95 Driver Installation

To make sure that your AHA-2910Bi driver software has
been properly installed and is operating under
Windows 95, do the following:
1
On the Win95 desktop press Start. An options menu
appears.
2
On the options menu click on Setting and select Con-
trol Panel.
3
Click on System. The System Properties window
appears.
4
Click on Device Manager.
5
Click on the SCSI Controllers icon.
6
If the Adaptec AIC-7850 PCI SCSI Controller is not
listed, follow the instructions in the EZ-SCSI or the
7800 Family Manager Set documentation for install-
ing driver support.
OR
If you see a yellow exclamation point or red X in front
of the listing for the AIC-7850 Controller, double click
on the icon to see the error message and correct the
problem.
Using SCSISelect
The SCSISelect configuration utility allows you to change
host adapter settings without opening the computer
case. SCSISelect also contains SCSI disk utilities that
allow you to perform a low-level format or verify the
disk media of your SCSI hard disk drives.
Starting the SCSISelect Utility
Use the bootable floppy diskette that is included with
your AHA-2910Bi product. After starting your computer
and inserting the floppy diskette, the first menu that
appears displays the options for SCSI Configuration set-
tings and the SCSI Disk Utility. At this time you may
select either a color or monochrome display by pressing
F5 (this feature may not work on all monitors).
Using SCSISelect Menus
SCSISelect uses menus to list the options you can select.
To select an option, use either the tab key or the up/
down arrow keys to move the cursor. Then press Enter.
When you select an option by pressing Enter, the system
may display an additional options menu. Return to the
previous menu at any time by pressing Esc. To restore
the original SCSISelect default values, press F6.
Exiting SCSISelect
To exit SCSISelect, press Esc until a message prompts
you to exit (if you changed any host adapter settings,
you are prompted to save the changes before you exit).
At the prompt, select Yes to exit, then press any key to
reboot the computer. Any changes you made in
SCSISelect take effect after the computer boots.
Default Settings
The AHA-2910Bi has default settings appropriate for
most PCI systems (see the table of settings below). Do not
run SCSISelect unless you want to change a default
setting.
