ASUS TXP4-X User’s Manual 59
Aside from the system BIOS, the Flash memory chip on the motherboard also con-
tains the Symbios SCSI BIOS. This Symbios SCSI BIOS works in conjunction with
the optional ASUS PCI-SC200 controller card to provide Fast SCSI-2 interface when
using compatible SCSI devices or the ASUS PCI-SC860 SCSI controller cards to
provide Ultra-Fast SCSI-2 interface when using Ultra-Fast SCSI-2 devices.
All SCSI devices you install on your system require driver software to function.
The Symbios SCSI BIOS directly supports SCSI hard disks under the DOS, Win-
dows and OS/2 environments. It also uses device drivers from the DOS floppy disk
included in the ASUS PCI-SC200 and ASUS PCI-SC860 controller card packages
to support hard disks and other SCSI devices working under DOS, Microsoft Win-
dows, Microsoft Windows NT, Novell NetWare and IBM OS/2. These drivers pro-
vide higher performance than the direct BIOS support. To use these drivers, you
must install them into your system and add them to your system configuration files.
Driver support for SCSI devices used with SCO UNIX is also provided. These
drivers are included in the second SCO UNIX floppy disk. Windows 95 support is
also available using the device drivers included within the Windows software. The
ASUS PCI-SC200 and ASUS PCI-SC860 are Plug and Play adapters that are auto
detected by BIOS and current operating systems that support Plug and Play features.
For information about these drivers and their usage, view the Readme files included
in the driver packages.
ASUS PCI-SC200 & PCI-SC860 SCSI Cards
The ASUS PCI-SC200 or the ASUS PCI-SC860 may be bundled with your mother-
board or purchased separately. Both cards provide the option of connecting internal
or external SCSI devices for a total of 7 devices on each SCSI card.
