Technical Tips
If your host adapter and SCSI device do not seem
to be working properly, check these items first.
– If you have an external SCSI device, did you
turn it
before you booted the PC?
ON
– Are all SCSI cables and power cables securely
connected?
– Is the host adapter firmly seated in the PCI
slot?
– Is the SCSI device terminated?
You cannot boot your PC from a SCSI disk drive
connected to the AVA-2902E/I host adapter,
because the host adapter does not have a BIOS.
Your PC must boot from another disk device.
Does your PC's CMOS setup require you to
enable PCI bus parameters? If so, refer to the PC
documentation for instructions. Verify that IRQ
channel assignment, board, and BIOS settings
have been made.
Note:
Some configuration options apply to a
specific PCI bus slot, so be sure you apply
any option changes to the slot in which the
host adapter is installed. (Check the PC doc-
umentation for more information.)
