If the system has started up normally, you will be able to see the CRW8824S
drive and SCSI card listed in Control Panel | System | Device Manager tab. The
drive will be listed when you double-click on CDROM and the SCSI card will
be listed when you double-click on SCSI controllers. (→P. 21, 29)
When you power up your computer, you can access the machine’s hardware
SCSI BIOS settings before Windows is loaded. You can set your computer to
recognize the SCSI card and CRW8824S drive in the BIOS.
Generally, the BIOS (Basic Input / Output System) is a small program that resides
on a ROM chip on the computer’s motherboard as well as on some expansion
cards. It checks the system and its devices (such as serial ports and hard disk
controllers) before loading the operating system (OS).
Are you using the correct SCSI driver?
If the SCSI card has not been installed correctly under Windows 95/98/98SE,
make sure that you have installed the most recent drivers supplied by the SCSI
card manufacturer.
If the SCSI card has not been installed correctly under Windows NT/2000,
update to the most recent ASPI drivers supplied by the manufacturer of the
SCSI card or the CD-writing software.
For information about the latest version of any driver, please contact the
respective hardware/software manufacturers.
Is the SCSI adapter card recognized correctly by the operating system (OS)?
The drivers for your SCSI adapter card may be incorrect. For more details,
contact the manufacturer of your SCSI adapter card.
