Option Name
Description
/NORST
Prevents a SCSI bus reset during loading of
ASPI8XX.SYS
.
Activate this option by modifying the line in the
CONFIG.SYS
file that loads
ASPI8XX.SYS
to look like this:
DEVICE=C:[PATH]ASP8XX.SYS /NORST
/ASK
Prompts at system bootup about loading the
ASPI8XX.SYS
driver.
Activate this option by modifying the line in the
CONFIG.SYS

/WIDTH
Defines the maximum data width negotiated with a device. This option can be used
with host adapters capable of 16-bit data transfers. Valid settings are 8 or 16.
Syntax:
/WIDTH=n
If the first host adapter (boot order designation = 0) is a 16-bit adapter, and you wish
to force 8-bit transfers to a device at SCSI ID 2, the line in the
CONFIG.SYS
file that
loads
ASPI8XX.SYS
should look like this:
DEVICE=C:[PATH]ASPI8XX.SYS /WIDTH=8<0:2>
