3-2 Configuring Your System
Configuring Your System
Configuration and setup utilities are used to change your system configuration.
You can configure your system, as well as option boards you may add to your
system, using the BIOS Setup Utility. Several unique system parameters are
configured using the BIOS Setup, which is stored in the system FLASH
memory.
The SCSISelect Utility detects the SCSI host adapters on the system board. Use
this utility if you need to configure the two SCSI controllers in your system or to
perform a SCSI disk format or verify disk operation on the SCSI disk drives.
The Adaptec Configuration Utility is also used to configure any SCSI
removable media devices installed in your system.
If your system has been factory configured, the BIOS Setup or SCSISelect
Utility do not need to be run unless you want to change the password or security
features, add certain types of option boards or devices, or upgrade your system
board.
This chapter also provides information on several system configuration
parameters that are set by jumpers on the system board. However, these
parameters do not usually require change.
Use the EXPRESSBUILDER CD-ROM to create the device driver diskettes.
