However, I have read on this list that there must be BIOS support for the card. Is this correct? If so, how do I know if I have support? I have an AMI BIOS on a Pentium PCI motherboard. I checked my BIOS settings and could not find anything related; but I also checked my system at work, which has an AWARD BIOS and could not find anything related to SCSI there either. I think I remember reading that the AWARD BIOS had NCR SCSI support. I am not at the system in question at this time so I can not provide more details. If I do not have BIOS support, what other inexpensive but good SCSI cards could I look at? Thank you. -- Glenn Johnson USDA-ARS-SRRC; CFQ Phone: (504) 286-4252; FAX: (504) 286-4217 e-mail: gjohnson@nola.srrc.usda.gov
