Try removing the SCSI drive from the boot list. Say, boot from SATA drive and then from floppy or something like that. I seem to remember having a similar problem where my BIOS would not boot from an IDE hard drive no matter what order I listed the SCSI device. I'd double check, but I don't feel like rebooting now to experiment.

Hi Tom,

Unfortunately, that's not an option in my system's BIOS parameters. You can use them to alter the Boot Priority of the drives, but not disable them.

Moving the SCSI drive to be the lowest priority still allows it to be bootable.

I also looked in the SCSI adapter's configuration options, but there's nothing there that keeps it from booting either.

Thanks,

Scott C.
