What devices do you have connected? Here are a few things to double check: There are some (like the older SCSI UMAX scanners) that prefer a specific spot in the chain. I.E. first, last, or perhaps before or after another specific type of device. You might also try swapping the last device on the chain with another device and terminate only the new "last" device. I've seen terminators (built in, add on passive and active and especially resistor terminators, the little comb shaped ones that plug into a hard drive in groups of 2 or 3) go bad. Also double check the SCSI ID #s. Most Macs allow the same ID # on the external and internal SCSI Bus, but some devices (once again, UMAX scanners are a good example) will not play nice if any other SCSI device has the same ID #. The plug in some external cases that connects the external SCSI ID# setting can be plugged in backwards causing the displayed ID # to not be the actual set ID #. Never rule out a bad device in the chain. Try removing devices one at a time to see if that helps. David Allen -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
