Asus Pentium Motherboard HX97 - Manual (Page 57)

ASUS HX97 User’s Manual 57
Aside from the system BIOS, the Flash memory chip on the motherboard also con-
tains the 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
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 con-
figuration files. Driver support for SCSI devices used with SCO UNIX is also pro-
vided. These drivers are included in the second SCO UNIX floppy disk. Windows
95 support is also available using the device drivers included within the Windows
software. The ASUS PCI-SC200 is a Plug and Play adapter that is auto detected by
BIOS and current operating systems that support Plug and Play features.
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.
