Enabling a SCSI Controller Enabling a SCSI Controller On HP Kayak XU Series 0301 and 0303, and XW Series U3 and W3 PC Workstations I have an HP Kayak PC Workstation and I would like to change the Boot device from the BIOS between two SCSI controllers, one of which is connected to the UltraWide (Adaptec) SCSI controller and the add-on SCSI controller (Symbios). You cannot load the two SCSI BIOS systems at the same time. However, it should be noted that if you decide to boot from an external SCSI device, you will not be able to access the UltraWide SCSI hard disk drive from DOS. Loading the correct SCSI drivers enables access of the Ultra-Wide SCSI hard disk drive from Windows NT. The integrated UltraWide SCSI controller is configured using the SCSISelect utility. This utility must be used if the HP FastRAID option is installed. With the add-on SCSI controller, it is configured using the Symbios Logic SCSI Configuration Utility. These two utilities cannot be loaded at the same time. Depending on the required SCSI option, only one of them can be enabled. Use the HP Setup program to enable and disable the required SCSI controllers. To do this, proceed as follows: 1 Press during the Power-On Self Test (POST), while the initial "Kayak" logo is displayed, immediately after restarting the PC. 2 Select the Advanced menu. From this sub-menu, you can then either enable or disable the following options: a Internal SCSI 16 Bits (Adaptec) b External/Internal 16/8 Bits (Symbios) For example, if you wish to use the Symbios BIOS: From the External/Internal 16/8 Bits (Symbios) sub-menu, set Option ROM Scan (Enabled) From the Internal SCSI 16 Bits (Adaptec) sub-menu, set Option ROM Scan (Disabled) If you wish to change the setting, repeat the above steps, and reverse the enabled and disabled options. 3 Save your changes and exit the Setup program. 29
