ASUS SC-200 (NCR 53C810) + OS/2 Warp Success - Anyone?

I'm having a heckuva time getting an ASUS SC-200 to work with OS/2
Warp.

I"ve got it attached to a DAT drive, everything (the only 2 things on
the SCSI bus - the controller and the drive) is terminated properly,
and I've set up the CMOS to set INTA to IRQ 11. (I do have a PCI/IDE
controller on INTD at IRQ 14 - not sure if that makes a difference). 

Upon bootup, the machine recognizes the board, the tape drive, and the
NCR bios. 

When OS/2 initializes, the OS2CAM.ADD driver is recognized, as is the
tape drive and IRQ 11. 

So all seems to be ok, right? But when I try to access the drive, the
system locks up - hard, requiring a hard boot. 

The other weird thing is that RMVIEW does not "see" IRQ 11. 

I am totally confused. Any ideas?

TIA,

Mike
