Windows 95 Troubleshooting

How do I determine if the Windows 95 socket is enabled and is running correctly?

1Insert the SlimSCSI 1450 in the PC Card slot.

2Click the Start button and click Settings.

3Click Control Panel.

4Double click the System icon, and then select the Device Manager tab.

5Double-click SCSI controllers. If APA-1450/60 PCMCIA is not listed, double click Other Devices.

6If PCMCIA Socket is not listed, or if it is listed but has a yellow exclamation mark or a red “X” next to it, PCMCIA Socket has not been loaded properly or is not configured properly. See your Windows 95 documentation for more information.

When I start Windows 95, the system locks up when the Windows logo is displayed. How can I get the system to start so I can verify that the SlimSCSI 1450 is functioning normally?

1Start or restart your PC, and view the onscreen messages.

2When Starting Windows 95 appears, press and release F8 while the text is on the screen.

3From the menu that is displayed, select Safe Mode. (It may take several minutes for Windows 95 to load.)

4Verify that the SlimSCSI 1450 software driver is loading prop- erly (see below).
