Subject:   Adaptec 7850 & PCI no work on new motherboard
Message-ID:  <m0sgT9r-000rfNC@easynet.com>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I just got an NCA 54AS PCI motherboard.  When booting the latest
SNAP boot floppy neither the onboard Adaptec 7850 Controller
nor the PCI bus is detected (which contains a PCI VGA card).

Isn't the 7850 the same chip used on the Adaptec 2940 PCI adapter?

In any case, anyone got any ideas why neither the controller
nor the PCI bus is being recognized by the boot floppy?

Thanks,

The 54AS is
  75-133 Mhz Pentium (mine has 75)
  5 slot ISA
  3 slot PCI
  On board Adaptec 7850 SCSI controller
  On board EIDE
  On board Floppy/2 Serial/Parallel
  8 to 128MB Ram (mine has 32)

My setup includes
  Some nameless PCI VGA Card.
