1.4 Troubleshooting

During installation, no SCSI devices are found:

•

Check the cable connections and the host bus adapter installation.

•

Ensure that all devices are powered on and terminated correctly.

•

Check that no devices have duplicate SCSI IDs.

•

Make sure INT A is assigned for the PCI slot(s) where your SCSI
host adapter(s) are installed.

•

Make sure the SCSI device driver is installed properly.

The computer hangs or locks up when booting and the SCSI devices
attached are not seen by the computer system:

•

Make sure that all the SCSI devices are configured at different ID
numbers (the boot drive should have the lowest ID).

•

Make sure both ends, but only the ends, of the SCSI bus are
terminated.

•

(DOS, OS/2) Make sure the device driver is listed in

CONFIG.SYS

(and loaded when booting).

The device driver does not see one of the SCSI devices:

•

Reboot the computer.

•

Make sure the SCSI devices have different ID numbers (the boot
drive should have the lowest ID).

•

Make sure both ends, but only the ends, of the SCSI bus are
terminated.

•

Check the cable and power connections.
