Enabling a SCSI Controller

Enabling a SCSI Controller

On HP Kayak XU Series 03xx, and XW Series U3 and W3 Models

I have an HP Kayak PC Workstation and I would like to change the
Boot device from the BIOS between two SCSI controllers, one of
which is connected to the UltraWide (Adaptec) SCSI controller
and the add-on SCSI controller (Symbios).
You cannot load the two SCSI BIOS systems at the same time.
However, it should be noted that if you decide to boot from an
external SCSI device, you will not be able to access the Ultra-
Wide SCSI hard disk drive from DOS. Loading the correct
SCSI drivers enables access of the Ultra-Wide SCSI hard disk
drive from Windows NT.
The integrated UltraWide SCSI controller is configured using the SCSISelect
utility. This utility must be used if the HP FastRAID option is installed. With
the add-on SCSI controller, it is configured using the Symbios Logic SCSI
Configuration Utility. These two utilities cannot be loaded at the same time.
Depending on the required SCSI option, only one of them can be enabled.
Use the HP Setup program to enable and disable the required SCSI
controllers. To do this, proceed as follows:
Press
during the Power-On Self Test (POST), while the initial
1
"Kayak" logo is displayed, immediately after restarting the PC.
Select the Advanced menu. From this sub-menu, you can then either
2
enable or disable the following options:
Internal SCSI 16 Bits (Adaptec)
a
External/Internal 16/8 Bits (Symbios)
b
For example, if you wish to use the Symbios BIOS:
From the External/Internal 16/8 Bits (Symbios) sub-menu, set
Option ROM Scan (Enabled)
From the Internal SCSI 16 Bits (Adaptec) sub-menu, set
Option ROM Scan (Disabled)
If you wish to change the setting, repeat the above steps, and reverse
the enabled and disabled options.
Save your changes and exit the Setup program.
