What the heck is an AHA-39320? I know you don't expect us to take the time
to look it up, so how is that 'simple'? Anyway, chances are it will need

I went on alt.periphs.scsi, earlier and, looked through the archives. Another
person had a problem similar to mine. They were told to re-install the 19160
then, download the drivers for the 39320 then, to re-install the 39320 so, I
