Adaptec AHA-2940 "scsi bios not found"... i want to take this off.

[NCman]

Hello, i looked at the adaptec website, and it didnt really give me any help. I want to surpass this inspection, but i heard that i cannot. Is this true? if not, tell me how please?

this is the adaptec faq:
http://www.adaptec.com/worldwide/support/faqdetail.html?prodkey=973549022&cat=/Product/AHA-2940

Q: During boot up I get the message, "Checking for SCSI target 0 LUN 0", after the Adaptec BIOS information. Approximately 30 seconds to a minute later "BIOS not installed, no INT 13h device found" is reported, then it boots normally.

A: The BIOS is trying to find a hard drive at SCSI ID 0 or 1. If you do not have a SCSI hard drive attached to the host adapter then it is recommended that the BIOS be disabled.


Thanks alot!

There's your answer. It sounds to me like you do NOT have a HDD connected to the SCSI controller.

You have to enter the SCZI config at startup and change it..
