Peripheral/Adapter problems
The system does not recognize a SCSI device
Probable cause
Solution
Memory was added or 
removed, and the new 
configuration was not saved 
in the BIOS Setup utility
Open the BIOS Setup utility and save the new memory 
configuration.
The memory was installed 
incorrectly
Make sure that the memory is properly seated and 
oriented.
A memory chip is faulty
Replace the card with the faulty chip. Third-party 
diagnostic programs can help determine which chip or 
memory segment is failing.
Probable cause
Solution
The processor was installed 
incorrectly
Check the installation. Make sure that the processor 
is fully seated in its socket. The processor should be 
recognized automatically if it was installed correctly.
Probable cause
Solution
The device needs to be 
added as new hardware
From the Control Panel window (Start | Settings | Control 
Panel
), double-click Add New Hardware. Follow the 
on-screen instructions for adding the device.
The SCSI ID may be 
invalid
Assign an available SCSI ID to the device.
The SCSI chain is not 
terminated
