<p>
I've tried that driver, and also every other driver that mentions ncr or<br>
symbios. None worked. On dejanews I found someone with the same problem,<br>
and he neither got it to work. I did get the isa-pnp stuff working, but <br>
not a device driver. After reading other threads on dejanews I discovered<br>
that the scsi controller was too slow for harddisks, couldn't handle more<br>
than one scsi adapter, so I spent 90 guilders ($50) for a ncr810 scsi card.<br>
<p>
If you decide to buy another scsi card, make sure you buy an active<br>
terminator also. The 53416A doesn't need a terminator (too slow I think),<br>
but every other scsi adapter _does_ need it.<br>
<p>
