Default SCSI-card and sound error!


I've just installed an Iwill SCSI-card to get my scanner to work!!! Trouble
is the computer don't find the scanner and th sound just went off! HP was
very kind and sent me the information they had about installing scanjet to an
existing SCSI-card, but Iwill has no support to that card any longer so here
I am! You can do a lot of changes in the bootsector by pressing Ctrl+A when
you start the computer but I would be grateful If someone could tell me how
it should be to get the scanner to work and to get the sound back again. Some
sounds "get through" but some don't. Sometimes when you put in a cd to play a
game an error message comes up. It's something about a conflict (sound) and
that the game won't work or work bad. I've run Dxdiag but there's everything
OK. In the controllpanel - devices also everything is OK. I think i've tried
everything but the computer still don't find my Scanjet.
Please help me to figure this out, someone ought to know.....!
PS I've tried http://www.scsifaq.org/ but I didn't find anything of use there.

Looks like you ignored my suggestion for an Adaptec scsi interface card.
Try to help you anyway.

You appear to have a irq resource conflict with the scsi card and the sound
card. Fix it.

Ctrl-A does not modify the bootsector. This is a common key combination for
entering a scsi card's bios. One can easily disable scanner use by altering
the scsi bios configuration.

A scanner is commonly connected to a scsi card externally. The scsi ID must
normally be ID 6 for a scanner. The scsi card must be terminated. The
scanner should be terminated if its the last scsi equipment on the scsi
interface. An active terminator tends to do a better job than a passive
terminator.

After the scsi card and scanner are properly installed at the HARDWARE
level. You must install software that acts as the interface for the
operating system to locate and use the scanner. This software is specific
to the scanner manufacturer, and must specify specifically for use for a
scsi interface when seeking such software.
