I'm building up a couple of systems around the Asus P55T2P4 mainboard and a P133 CPU. I had planned on adding the Asus SC200 SCSI card, which is built around the NCR53C810; but the local computer shop recommended against that, saying that the SC200 must use IRQ0, and that I will therefore have trouble if I try to run non-Microsoft operating systems. I'm afraid I don't know enough about the PCI bus architecture even to know if this is gibberish or not. (Hey, at least they know there *are* non-Microsoft OS's!) I've also seen references to the NCR SCSI BIOS, but I'm unclear on whether this is an extra-cost option or not. Can anyone help shed some light here? Jim Shankland Flying Fox Computer Systems, Inc.
