Hi

I would like to know if someone managed to install this main bord (under
bios v.FJ) with this scsi extension card.

====================
PROBLEM :
====================
the scsi bios message is not shown at the boot
CTRL-A is not working


====================
Components :
====================
sata : 2x dd Hitachi 120 Go Serial ATA 150 - 7200 trs/min - Buffer 8Mo
ide : 2x dd Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 40 Go 7200 trs/min - UDMA 133 - Buffer 2
Mo
scsi : controler 39160 adaptec + [2x dd atlas quatum V 9,8Go + terminaison
lvd] + [ cdrom SE plextor 40]
CPU : SEMPRON 2400
DDR : kingston 3200 256Mo

====================
BIOS Settings :
====================
# advanced bios feature scsi/raid ctrl bot order 1-adaptec scsi 2- ata
3-ite 4- silicon
# advanced bios feature first boot device -floppy- second -scsi-
third -hdd0-
# IRQ -option auto-


Any suggestion ?

DreamK,
Is the SCSI card properly installed? What does your Device Manager display?
Have you installed the SCSI adapter drivers? Are you booting this system
using another operating system on another hard drive and are trying to boot
to an operating system on the SCSI hard drives?

I would suggest removing all other hard drives but one SCSI drive. Install
WinXP using the F6 option. Once you have installed WinXP on this SCSI hard
drive the SCSISelect message should work.

Good Luck
Jeff French

Hi,

Thanks for your answer

The problem is not about "booting the operating system" but on "the scsi
boot" with the specific bios message :
acces to the BIOS press CRTL A . This option will let me choose the scsi
cd-rom device like the 1 first boot (Debian cd1)

My Advanced BIOS :
# advanced bios feature scsi/raid ctrl bot order 1-adaptec scsi 2- ite
3-ata 4- silicon
# advanced bios feature first boot device -floppy- second -scsi-
third -hdd0-

I let you see my configuration :
http://optimates.sorbonne.free.fr/do...ro2/Report.txt

The main board picture and the scsi card picture :
http://optimates.sorbonne.free.fr/do...2/DSCN0065.JPG

I do not have any trouble with the scsi hard drive or another device. I am
just asking me why I am unable to acces to the scsi bios.

My have tested my scsi bios with flash5.exe from Adaptec, and the bios
anwser : v3.10.0.0

DreamK,
The Cntrl A message at bootup can be hidden by disabling this advanced
configuration option in the SCSISelect application. To restore the Cntrl A
simply enter Cntrl A during bootup when the SCSI BIOS message is
displayed, enter the SCSISelect application, select advanced configuration
option, and enable display of the Cntrl A message at bootup.

The latest BIOS version for that SCSI card is 4.30.

Good Luck

DreamK,
I must correct myself.
The lastest BIOS version for that SCSI card is 3.10. I was thinking of the
39320 seris cards. My bad!

Hi

I have tryed this solution but nothing more.

As well, I have tryed a new flash for having the default settings, but
nothing more.

I really don't know what to do.

DreamK,
On page 45 of the motherboard user's manual:
SCSI/RAID Cntrl Boot OrderThis feature allows you to select the boot
order Serial ATA, RAID or SCSI device. Select boot Sequence for onboard (or
add-on cards) SCSI, RAID, etc.
Selecting the SCSI boot option within the motherboard BIOS will over-ride
the "Adaptec host adapter BIOS".
Disable this option and reboot the computer. The Cntrl A message and
Adaptec host adapter BIOS message should appear.

Good Luck

I think that will be more easyer to see exactly my BIOS config

I have taken some pictures of my boot, take a look:

http://optimates.sorbonne.free.fr/doc/7n400pro2/BIOS/

Do you think something should be wrong ?

DreamK,
The Cntrl A message at bootup can be hidden by disabling this
advanced
configuration option in the SCSISelect application. To restore the
Cntrl A simply enter Cntrl A during bootup when the SCSI BIOS
message is displayed, enter the SCSISelect application, select advanced
configuration option, and enable display of the Cntrl A message at
bootup.

The latest BIOS version for that SCSI card is 4.30.

Good Luck
Jeff French

Hi,

Thanks for your answer

The problem is not about "booting the operating system" but on "the
scsi
boot" with the specific bios message :
acces to the BIOS press CRTL A . This option will let me choose the
scsi cd-rom device like the 1 first boot (Debian cd1)

My Advanced BIOS :
# advanced bios feature scsi/raid ctrl bot order 1-adaptec scsi 2-
ite
3-ata 4- silicon
# advanced bios feature first boot device -floppy- second -scsi-
third -hdd0-

I let you see my configuration :

The main board picture and the scsi card picture :
http://optimates.sorbonne.free.fr/do...2/DSCN0065.JPG

I do not have any trouble with the scsi hard drive or another device.
I
am
just asking me why I am unable to acces to the scsi bios.

My have tested my scsi bios with flash5.exe from Adaptec, and the bios
anwser : v3.10.0.0

DreamK,
Is the SCSI card properly installed? What does your Device Manager
display? Have you installed the SCSI adapter drivers? Are you booting
this system using another operating system on another hard drive and
are
trying to boot to an operating system on the SCSI hard drives?

I would suggest removing all other hard drives but one SCSI drive.
Install WinXP using the F6 option. Once you have installed WinXP on
this
SCSI hard drive the SCSISelect message should work.

Good Luck
Jeff French

DreamK,
Disable the OnBoard LAN Boot ROM option on the Intergrated Peripherals BIOS
screen. Save and reboot.

Good Luck

I think that will be more easyer to see exactly my BIOS config

I have taken some pictures of my boot, take a look:

http://optimates.sorbonne.free.fr/doc/7n400pro2/BIOS/

Do you think something should be wrong ?

DreamK,
On page 45 of the motherboard user's manual:
SCSI/RAID Cntrl Boot OrderThis feature allows you to select the boot
order Serial ATA, RAID or SCSI device. Select boot Sequence for onboard
(or
add-on cards) SCSI, RAID, etc.
Selecting the SCSI boot option within the motherboard BIOS will over-ride
the "Adaptec host adapter BIOS".
Disable this option and reboot the computer. The Cntrl A message and
Adaptec host adapter BIOS message should appear.

Good Luck
Jeff French

As well, I have tryed a new flash for having the default settings, but

I really don't know what to do.
