4 Technical Information

Configuring a SCSI Accessory

•Plug and Play Scam Support

When enabled, this option automatically configures Plug and Play compatible SCSI devices. For SCSI devices that do not support Plug and Play, set this option to Disabled. By default, it is enabled.

•Extended BIOS Translation for DOS Drives >1 GByte

This option is no longer used (and must always be “Enabled”).

•Reset SCSI Bus at IC Initialization

When the SCSI controller receives an IC Reset command from the central processor, it can reset either itself and the SCSI bus, or just itself. By default, it will reset both itself and the SCSI bus.

•Host Adapter BIOS

This option enables or disables the SCSI Adapter BIOS. Several options in SCSISelect utility are only valid if the SCSI adapter BIOS is enabled. The SCSI adapter BIOS must be enabled if the computer boots from a SCSI hard disk drive. This option is enabled by default.

•Support Removable Disks Under BIOS as Fixed Disks

When Boot Only is selected, only the removable media drive designated as the boot device is treated as a hard disk drive.

If All Disks is selected, all removable-media drives supported by the BIOS are treated as hard disk drives. No removable-media drives are treated as hard disk drives when Disabled is selected. In this case, removable-media drives must be controlled through operating system drivers.

•Display <F6> Message During BIOS Initialization

When enabled, this option displays the message Press <F6> for SCSISelect(TM) Utility during BIOS initialization. When disabled, this message is not displayed, although you can still press

the key for the SCSISelect utility. This option is enabled by default.

•BIOS Support for Bootable CD-ROM

When enabled, this option provides BIOS support for booting from a CD-ROM drive. It is enabled by default.

•BIOS Support for Int13 Extensions

When enabled, this option provides BIOS support for hard disk drives with more than 1024 cylinders. It is enabled by default.
