18 Chapter 3 Configuring the ASUS LS99
3. Configuration
The following options have no effect if the SCSI Card BIOS is disabled. (The SCSI
Card BIOS is normally enabled by default.)
• BIOS Multiple LUN Support—(Default: No) Leave this setting on No if the
device does not have multiple Logical Unit Numbers (LUNs). When set to Yes,
the SCSI card BIOS provides boot support for a SCSI device with multiple LUNs
(for example, a CD “jukebox” device in which multiple CDs can be accessed
simultaneously).
• Include in BIOS Scan—(Default: Yes )When set to Yes, the SCSI card BIOS
includes the device as part of its BIOS scan at bootup.
Advanced Configuration
NOTE: Do not change the Advanced Configuration options unless
absolutely necessary.
• Reset SCSI Bus at IC Initialization—(Default: Enabled) When set to Enabled,
the SCSI card generates a SCSI bus reset during its power-on initialization and
after a hard reset.
• Display <Ctrl> <A> Messages during BIOS Initialization— (Default: Enabled)
When set to Enabled, the SCSI card BIOS displays the “Press <Ctrl> <A> for
SCSISelect (TM) Utility!” message on your screen during system bootup. If this
setting is disabled, you can still invoke the SCSISelect Utility by pressing <Ctrl>
<A> after the SCSI card BIOS banner appears. If you change this setting, the
change automatically applies to both SCSI channels.
• Extended Int 13 Translation for DOS Drives > 1 GByte — (Default: Enabled)
When set to Enabled, provides an extended translation scheme for SCSI hard
disks with capacities greater than 1 GByte. This setting is necessary only for
MS-DOS 5.0 or above; it is not required for other operating systems, such as
NetWare or UNIX.
CAUTION: Changing the translation scheme destroys all data on the
drive. Be sure to back up your disk drives before changing the
translation scheme.
Use the MS-DOS Fdisk command to partition a disk larger than 1 GByte
controlled by the SCSI card BIOS, when using DOS, Windows 3.1.x, or Windows
95/98.
• POST Display Mode—(Default: Verbose) When set to Verbose, the SCSI card
BIOS displays the host adapter model on the screen during system buildup. When
set to Silent, the message will not be displayed during bootup. If you change this
setting, the change automatically applies to both SCSI channels.
