additional notes:

  • In all configurations DVB2000 should be set to operate as a 'communication device' (Guide/8/4/8 to 'Com-Dev').

  • In most configurations synchronous transfer should be dissabled in DVB2000 (Guide/8/4/4 to 'act. neg. OFF'), inside SCSI-controller BIOS-setup (if possible) and also in the Windows device manager.

  • If you are not able to install Adaptec ASPI-driver because you have no Adaptec-controller, then you have two possibilities to get them installable. First way is to use the ASPI-installer shipped with most CD-burning software, which do not check the controller-type. The second way is to tell the ASPI-installer to have a compatible Adaptec-controller. To do this, simply install a non Plaug&Play Adaptec-controller like the AHA-1542 from the Windows system-control. After installing this controller, Windows ask for a reboot. Say NO at this time. Run the ASPI-installer, which also ask for reboot. Also say NO to this question. No uninstall the Adaptec-controller and reboot your PC. Thats it.

  • For Windows 2000 you need the DVB2000-Driver from GKware. Version 1.0 works more stable than newer versions.

  • Linux-User with a Adaptec-controller should set DVB2000-SCSI-ID to 6.
