Troubleshooting Checklist

Check the following if you have problems installing or running the

ARO-1130SA and SCSI devices:

Does the ARO-1130SA BIOS sign-on message appear during

bootup? If not, check the following items:

–

Is the ARO-1130SA properly seated in a PCI/RAIDport

expansion slot? Refer to your computer documentation for

the slot location.

–

Does your computer CMOS setup require you to enable

PCI bus parameters (see your computer documentation)? If

so, run the CMOS Setup program and assign the parame-

ters—usually IRQ, Enable PCI Slot, and Enable Master.

–

Have you run the Array1000xA BIOS & Driver Selection

Utility?

Is the SCSI bus terminated properly, and are all SCSI devices

turned on?

Are all SCSI bus cables and power cables connected?

Does each channel and each device on the channel have a

unique SCSI ID?

If you are having trouble booting from a SCSI disk drive or

array, make sure your computer's CMOS setup is set to No

Drives Installed (the required setting for SCSI drives). Also,

verify that the drive or array has been selected as the boot-first

(boot) device and that the boot partition is active.
