subject: SCSI Adapter Startup

Howdy! Mark,

I watch the screen when I turn the xp box on.

Since I've added the SyQuest SCSI drive usually I will see the SCSI
Adapter that came with it show 0 (Zero) is given to the SyQuest drive
and the adapter always gets a 7.

I panic when I see an extra SCSI device number in the start up list and
hold the power button until the lights go out, then I turn it on again.

What I see is like this:

0  SyQuest drive
1 
7  Adapter Card

I see this extra device number show up once a week at least, when the
xp box is turned on.

I can't recall what name is shown along side #1.

The second time I turn the box on I see just the 0 and 7 numbers.

The HP SCSI Scanner I used on my 486 came with a card that I plugged in
to a 8 bit slot.

I can only remember that the scanner was device #2.
I never noticed it trying to access a additional device number like I'm
seeing since I started using the SCSI drive.

Is there any place on the internet that You can give me to learn about
SCSI stuff?

Off the top of my head I think the Adapter is made by Advance.
Thanks.

... Its a fine line between fishing and standing still
