I've got two AHA1542 cards.. not sure on the revision on either, if they're C's or not, but one is the older one with the large SCSI connectors and the other is SCSI-2... the SCSI-2 card is on the Mandrake 6.0 machine, but the other is on this one running 6.1... it's IO:330, IRQ 12, DMA 7 and it works fine. I believe the other card is identical except it's on a different IRQ... Something about IRQ 11 bugs me tho, and I'm not sure what can you stick it on a different IRQ (maybe try 12?) and see if that works? Do you have any other cards in there that may have IRQ conflicts at all? I know I had that problem with a PNP NE2000 card before until I changed the IRQ on the Adaptec card...

I have a 7 disk cdrom tower connected to it and it sees them all fine. I guess what I could do is attempt to load it with DOS and see what happens. Or maybe hook up a hardrive that I know is good and see what happens. What happens is the program sees the card just fine but then complains it can't reset the device. I'll give exact details when I get to work.

If I fixed the termination then the card was perfectly discovered. Michael Irving

Can you give us details on the card (I/O, IRQ, attached devices, and so forth)? Mine works fine and it's an AHA1542 using the stock boot.img (and bootnet.img) and autoprobing found it just fine...
