Configuring the Adaptec SCSI Card with SCSISelect s Extended INT 13 Translation for DOS Drives > 1 GByte- (Default: Enabled) When set to Enabled, provides an extended translation scheme for SCSI hard disks with capacities greater than 1 GB. This setting is necessary only for current versions of MS-DOS; it is not required for other operating systems, such as NetWare or UNIX. ! Caution: Changing the translation scheme destroys all data on the drive. Be sure to back up your disk drives before changing the translation scheme. s Post Display Mode-(Default: Verbose) During POST, the amount of information displayed depends on the mode. If you change this setting, the change automatically applies to both SCSI channels. The following modes are available: s Verbose-The results of the SCSI bus scan are displayed, but the results of the PCI bus scan are not displayed. s Silent-Nothing is displayed about POST, not even the Adaptec banner. However, error messages are displayed if there is a problem on the SCSI bus or SCSI devices. ! Caution: Setting this feature to Silent completely disables the messages displayed by the Adaptec SCSI Card during the restart of the system. You will have to remember where in the POST cycle of the BIOS the Press for SCSISelect (TM) Utility! message was displayed, and press Ctrl-A at that time to get into SCSISelect. If you press Ctrl-A too early or too late, you will not be able to enter into the cards setup. s Diagnostic-The PCI and SCSI bus scan results are displayed separately. There is a pause between PCI and SCSI scans. 3-9
