specify the DOS or NetWare drivers to be in-

The next step depends on which drivers you’re in-
stalling.

 DOS Driver Installation:

You 

will be asked if you want the utility to automat-

ically update your system 

 and 

TOEXEC.BAT files. If Yes, the system updates the
DOS configuration files and renames your old files
to CONFIG.BL and AUTOEXEC.BL. If No, you will
have to update your DOS configuration files manu-
ally. Proceed to Step 5.

 Net Ware Driver Installations:

If you 

are 

installing update drivers for NetWare

3.11, installation is complete. Proceed to Step 5.

If you are installing the NetWare 3.11 operating
system for the first time, you will need to contin-
ue with operating system installation. 

 the

 Adapter Driver Software Installation Guide 

for

further details. Proceed to Step 5.

_ If you are installing update drivers for NetWare

3.12 or 4.X, driver installation will be complete
after you modify your 

 file to re-

flect the new driver names as indicated in the
message screen. Proceed to Step 5.

5. Once installation is complete, re-boot your system

to activate the new device drivers. You won’t be
able to access the new devices until you do so.

Refer to the 

 SCSI Adapter Driver Software In-

stallation Guide 

or third-party documentation for device

driver installation details.

Troubleshooting

Review installation steps for correct procedure.

Be sure all connectors are firmly seated.

Check cable orientation. Be sure that Pin 1 on the ca-
ble matches 

 on the SCSI device connector.

Be sure that you‘ve followed termination rules. If
the 

BT-54XC 

is in the middle of the SCSI chain, use

 to disable termination.

Check that you have correctly set the hard drive op-
tion to 

not installed 

in the system SETUP file.

Be sure that settings for the adapter I/O Port Ad-
dress, BIOS Address, IRQ and DMA Channel do not
conflict with those of other installed cards.

If you changed any parameters using AutoSCSI, use
the 

 

 Adapters 

option to return the

board to factory defaults.
