the SCSI adapters utility window and double
click on the ATTO ExpressPCI host adapter
description, and then on the bus it is

If the card has been recently re-flashed with
new firmware, the new NT driver must be
installed.

For Intel-based PCs, check the computer
CMOS setup and verify that the PCI slots
are configured correctly. Procedures vary
greatly: refer to the manual supplied with
your system or call the computer supplier
for configuration assistance.

If these suggestions do not solve the
problem, re-flash the host adapter and re-
install the Windows NT driver.

Power up Fibre Channel drives before
booting up your machine. If the Macintosh
host is powered up before the drives, the
drives may not automatically mount
(depending on when the drives were
powered on).

Re-flash the card using the updater program
(See Chapter 4). Select the unconditional
flash option when attempting to re-flash
the host adapter.
