Unable to open ASPI manager!
No ASPI manager is loaded. Be sure that
aspi2dos.sys
is listed before
aspidisk.sys
in the
config.sys
file. Be sure that the ASPI drivers are in
the root directory of the boot drive. You can also put the drivers in a
subdirectory, as long as you specify a correct path in the
config.sys
file. For example, if you put the drivers in a subdirectory called
c:\drivers
, then you need the following line in your
config.sys
file:
device=c:\drivers\aspi2dos.sys
Invalid DOS version. DOS must be version 3.21 and above.
aspidisk.sys
requires MS
®
-DOS or PC-DOS 3.21 or higher. It does
not load if it detects an earlier version of DOS.

adapter at that port address, that there is an address conflict, or that
the host adapter is defective. Reinstall the host adapter. Check cables
and jumpers. Check for I/O address conflicts. Confirm that the con-
tents of the motherboard CMOS are set correctly with the

rectly. Be sure that all SCSI devices are powered up. Check SCSI bus
termination, SCSI parity, and cabling.

Check with your drive manufacturer to ensure that you have the
latest firmware for your SCSI drive.

If the driver is unable to determine capacity for drives 0 through 7,
contact the drive manufacturer. Low-level formatting may be needed.
