Problem with SCSI ID and scanner

yuno · #1 04-16-2004, 03:40 PM

I have the Agfa Duoscan HiD scanner. It connects to the computer via SCSI cable. You can adjust the SCSI ID number on the scanner. I have tried every SCSI ID number on the scale, and no matter what I do i get this message:

Quote:

Make sure you installed the necessary drivers for your SCSI board.
Check all cables and connections and make sure the power switch is
turned on. Also verify that a unique SCSI ID is assigned to each device
and that the SCSI chain is terminated at the first and last device on the scsi cable.

I have no idea what it all means. Can someone explain to me? What am I suposed to do?

I have installed all the software that came with the scanner, including its driver, which is supposed to be FotoLook 3.6 if im not wrong.

HELP!

Which Operating System are you using?

What Make / Model SCSI Card have you got installed?

Check in Control Panel for SCSI.

i have no idea what you mean, see, this is my control panel. is there supposed to be a file about SCSI in it??

I haven't had a machine with SCSI for a while so that was just a possibility.

In Control Panel > Double Click System > In the System Properties window > Hardware > Device Manager > See if SCSI is mentioned there.

aha!
it says

SCSI and RAID controllers
-- Sillicon Image SiI 3112 SATARaid controller

and thats all in that group. What does that mean?

That means that your system is not recognising any SCSI cards that are fitted.

What make / model is your Motherboard?

yuno · #9 04-17-2004, 02:04 PM

errrr..... something like ABIT NF7... bla does that make sense?

yuno · #10 04-17-2004, 02:06 PM

or, i have its box here, some sticker on it says

4069 MBO ABIT, socket A, NF7-S, nForce2 SPP + MCP-t, BUS 333

is that better?

I eventually found the Motherboard ...

It doesn't have onboard SCSI so you need to remove the cover and find the SCSI Card to identify it.

yuno · #12 04-17-2004, 03:12 PM

wait wait... move the cover? of what?

identify the card?

i have no idea what youre on about!

LooseChippings · #13 04-17-2004, 03:23 PM

Have a read of this ...

You need to remove the cover from your PC to find and identify the SCSI Card.
