set to Enabled, the SCSI card generates a SCSI bus reset during
its power-on initialization and after a hard reset.
■
Display <Ctrl> <A> Messages during BIOS Initialization—
(Default: Enabled) When set to Enabled, the SCSI card BIOS

you can still invoke the SCSISelect Utility by pressing <Ctrl>
<A> after the SCSI card BIOS banner appears.
■
Extended BIOS Translation for DOS Drives > 1 GByte—
(Default: Enabled) When set to Enabled, provides an extended
translation scheme for SCSI hard disks with capacities greater

above; it may be required for other operating systems.
Caution:
Changing the translation scheme may
destroy all data on the drive. Be sure to back up the
data before changing the translation scheme. If this
setting is changed we recommend that you low level
formatted the drive after changing the setting.

. Check the operating
system documentation for information on any partition size
limitations.
