Mike, I know I probably went through this once before, but
have you done the diode mod to that card? It attaches to the
back of the card. I have done 4-5 of those mods so far and it
"IS" required for the HS SCSI card to work with the IIgs. I've
tried it with and without and I know that without it, there
will be problems. Also the manual mentions that ID 2 is for
using some printer or scanner alone. If you have the manual,
read it through. It'll help you to understand how that card
works. If you don't have it, there might be one online, but
if not, I will scan one in and send it to you. 8o) I'm trying
to help you, so please don't take this as an insult.
