Thanks Dave for your reply. Now, are you talking about the PC being turned
on or the device? Normally I would turn off the device, then plug/unplug
it. I always thought that the need for turning off everything, plug devices
and then boot again was due to the need of having the SCSI devices turned
on BEFORE the computer, so that it sees the device/s when it boots and
loads drivers as appropriate.
Thanks again for your help.
