go into the controller's bios and turn on boot with cdrom for that device..or something like that. basically it's in the bios for that controller

when you boot the computer, you should see a a message telling you the key combination to get to the scsi bios..

A friend made me a custom boot floppy for Tekram card (I have DC390-U2W & Plextor reader/burner). It works, and I'd be glad to zip it up & send to you, but like CC says, I think u need a card w/ a bios to be able to boot from a device on the card. Can anyone confirm/deny?
