Hello,
I have a Windows XP Home box with 1 IDE and 1 SATA hard drive. I would like to be able to use a SCSI hard drive from an XP Pro box to store data. I have installed an Adaptec AHA-2940UW controller. XP detects it and says the drivers are loaded. When I connect the SCSI drive to the controller with a 68 pin cable (with termination after the hard drive) the computer boots to the " changes have been made to your system" screen but will not boot to Windows or safe mode. The bios is set to boot from the ide drive. What am I missing?
