| NCR chips were taken over by Symbios Logic. I don't know the 8100S -
there is a 53C810 (often just called 810) which is quite common. Maybe
you can find drivers at www.symbios.com.

| Thanx, Jim.... I went to the web site and I think I got the right
ones. I'll try these and see if they work.
Thanx again,
Chris.....

2925.3 | | LEFTY::CWILLIAMS | CD or not CD, that's the question | Wed Feb 19 1997 14:38 | 7 |
| I think the 8100s is just an NCR810 on a board...
If so, both Win95 and NT support it with no added drivers.
You'll need drivers for Win3.1, though.

| After checking in the lab... This is just an NCR810 on a board.
No drivers required for NT/Win95... though you can get updated drivers
from Symbios.

| I haven't had a chance to try it yet, but from all the info it sounds
like I shouldn't have any problems. I'm waiting to get a storage
cabinet.
re: .4 Sorry about that, I don't know where I came up with "Jim"???

Oh, never mind... it's a nice name. :-)

2925.9 | Doesn't see devices. | ICS::CHRISBELL | | Sat Mar 01 1997 11:05 | 8 |
| Ok, Ihave installed the NCR 810 and Win 95 knows about it. Now I am
trying to add a RZ28 drive. How do I make it see the drive? I also
have a TLZ06 tape drive I have connected to the card also, and it
doesn't see that either. Do both of these devices need drivers?
Thanx,
Chris.....

| Does Fdisk see the disk?
It needs to be both Fdisk'd and formatted before you will see it.
Also, the drive has to be set to spin up on power up. RZ28's are not
set that way by default - you'll have to add a jumper.
Look in SSAG::ASK_SSAG for jumper settings.
The TLZ06 needs a backup program with drivers to run under '95.
dir/title=backup here and in the WINDOWS95 notes file for your options.
I'm using Seagate Backup (~$70) - there are many others out there that
work as well or better. Depends who you ask.

| No fdisk disn't see it either. Doesn't it have to be assigned a drive
letter first in order for fdisk to work?
I'll look for the jumper setting, thats probably it. I know I didn't
set any jumpers on it.

| FDISK goes by hard drives and not by logical drives with drive letters.
Does the NCR BIOS list all the devices during boot? In a worst case you
might have to use the SCSI disk formatter which comes with the NCR SCSI
(kit is called ProSCSI). The formatter needs to be run from DOS.

2925.13 | Works OK now! | ICS::CHRISBELL | | Wed Mar 05 1997 13:13 | 8 |
| Got it to work. I ENABLED the treminators to take the TLZ06 out of the
picture and now it sees the RZ28. I have to load NT onto the RZ28, and
than I'll try to set up the TLZ06 to be seen by NT...
Thanx for the info.
Chris.....
