Link or Hardware Error |
Using
the UMAX UDS-IS11/ISA (PC):
Try moving the card to a different ISA slot and reinstalling
the VistaScan driver
Check for a conflict in the
System control panel Device Manager and try the DTC
drivers
Using an Adaptec or other third party card:
Ensure miniport drivers are
installed and remove any UDS-IS11/ISA
system devices
When using Adaptec's EZSCSI software a "Scanners"
device group may indicate a conflict.
If you use an Ultra-Wide (eg 2940UW) card, read the special
notes on cabling and termination
If you are using a Blue & White G3 read
