While you're here, how about checking out the
Astronomy Book
List ? |
Actually, the adaptec driver appears to be ok. When I boot the computer with the
Pictor controller attached, it comes up in SCSI mode. What does not work (does not
even install properly) is either the MaxIm or the PictorView. Both yield failure
("attempted direct access to hard drive" or some such).
Any thoughts?
