Troubleshooting x86 BootBIOS
There are circumstances in which your system may operate in an unexpected manner. This
Troubleshooting section explains several of these circumstances and offers one or more workarounds for
each situation.
The x86 BootBIOS Message Does Not Appear on Bootup
Situation: You want to access the x86 BootBIOS, but on bootup the x86 BootBIOS message does not
appear.
Resolution: Make sure that x86 BootBIOS has been loaded and enabled.
Retry This Adapter Message
Situation: The message "Retry This Adapter" appears during BIOS scanning.
Resolution: Check the hardware configuration or reconfigure the HBA BIOS using the BIOS utility.
The .prg File Fails During Downloading
Situation: The .prg file fails during downloading. The 1.70a1 version of the BIOS image is 48k, which
may cause the file to fail during downloading.
Resolution:
1. Download the firmware .awc file (without the BIOS image)
2. Download the BIOS image file.
Note: This problem may occur with LP9402DC, LP9002L, LP9002DC, LP9000,
LP952L, LP8000, LP8000DC or LP850 host bus adapters.
