ASUS P/I-XP55T2P4 User’s Manual 53
Aside from the system BIOS, the Flash memory chip on the motherboard also con-
tains the NCR SCSI BIOS. This SCSI BIOS works in conjunction with the optional
ASUS PCI-SC200 SCSI controller card to provide a complete PCI Fast SCSI-2
interface.
All SCSI devices you install to your system require driver software to function. The
NCR SCSI BIOS directly supports SCSI hard disks under the DOS, Windows and
OS/2 environments. It also uses device drivers from the DOS floppy disk included
in the PCI-SC200 controller card package to support hard disks and other SCSI
devices working under DOS, Windows, Windows NT, Novell NetWare and OS/2.
These drivers provide higher performance than the direct BIOS support. To use
these drivers, you must install them into your system and add them to your system
configuration files. Driver support for SCSI devices used with SCO UNIX is also
provided. These drivers are included in the second SCO UNIX floppy disk. Win-
dows 95 support is also available using the device drivers included within the Win-
dows software. The ASUS PCI-SC200 adapter is auto detected as PCI NCRC810
SCSI HOST ADAPTER and uses the NCRC810.MPD driver.
For information about these drivers and their usage, see the Readme files included
in the driver packages. You can print out the contents of these files using any text
editor program.
The next few pages will instruct you on the installation of the ASUS PCI-SC200
Fast SCSI Card.
