Peripheral/Adapter Problems

hardware. From the Control Panel window ( Start |
Settings | Control Panel ), double-click Add
New Hardware . Follow the directions for
adding the device. If you are not
experienced with this procedure, call
Technical Support.
The SCSI ID may be
invalid. Assign an available SCSI ID to the device.

terminated. Make certain the last device on the SCSI
chain is terminated.

not installed correctly. Open the system and check all cables
between the controller and the device.
Probable Cause Solution

may be configured
incorrectly. Restart your computer, and then press F1
to enter the Setup utility program. From the
Boot | Removable Devices menu, ensure that
the diskette drive parameters are set
correctly.
The drive cables are
not connected
properly. Open the system and check all cables
connected to the controller card.
The drive controller is
not seated properly. Open the system and reseat the drive
