Well, not really. There's no reason you cannot have more than one SCSI adapter in a PC. The PAS-16 driver may (or may not) support the Quantum drive so the original poster might just have to keep both cards. Sounds to me more like the Adaptec and PAS-16 are interfering with each other by using the same address or interrupt. These should be adjustable via jumper so that each card uses it's own address (I/O or memory) and interrupt number. . -- Dave -- -- *************************************************************************** DaveJ Lyons DoD #0633 dlyons@necis.ma.nec.com (603)878-2567 BBS Opinions expressed are mine.
