Try installing the smartdrv double-buffering in DOS this has been
required for every SCSI machine I have worked on.  But don't rule out IRQ
base address or shared memory conflicts.  See the DOS manual for
installing smartdrv double-buffering.  Also look at the readme in
windows for more info on SCSI and windows.
