Hello, I am having problems reading my Syquest cartridge that was formatted using a clients computer system (so that I could transfer an application with changes created on-site).

Michael, If you have Pro, we have a download that will help. If you do not have Pro the download will not work. The file is NETPROF.EXE Password is SPRING @ 9600,8,n,1 (613)-728-4752 That should do it for ya. I hope it helps. Laszlo
From: Laszlo Istvandi Corel Forum · CorelSCSI! November 19, 1993 10:30 AM

Phil, I've a ton-o-info for ya! 1) Yes, Norton cache should still work. 2) Try running Windows with a /D:FSVX. If this helps, type WIN /? to see what the results are. 3) Devices do not use addresses only controllers. 4) Each SCSI bus is different therefore you can have…

From: Laszlo Istvandi Corel Forum · CorelSCSI! November 19, 1993 10:30 AM
Victor, I have seen this error if the Multimedia extensions are installed. If you have them installed, try un-installing them to see if that makes a difference. Laszlo
#87277 #CorelSCSI 2.0 Message #87387
From: Laszlo Istvandi Corel Forum · CorelSCSI! November 19, 1993 10:30 AM
Jay, Just got off the phone with the engineer. To confirm, the "INSITE" floptical was not supported under 1.2b. The IOMEGA was. CoreSCSI version 2.0 does support the INSITE floptical. I would check with with our Customer Service section on upgrade policies since you only purchased 1 week ago. Laszlo
#87172 #UNI_ASP.SYS Message #87386
From: Laszlo Istvandi Corel Forum · CorelSCSI! November 19, 1993 10:30 AM
Jean-Hugues, The operating system tells us what the next available local drive letter is and we use it. There is no option to switch this using the drivers. You may want to look into the DOS SUBSTITUTE or ASSIGN commands to do this. I hope this helps. Laszlo

#87153 DPT smartcache III Message #87384
From: Laszlo Istvandi Corel Forum · CorelSCSI! November 19, 1993 10:30 AM
Andrew, The 2012, 2011, and CM 4000 controllers from DTC have been certified. This means that we know that they work with our software. This is not to say that the 2022 and 2122 controllers will not. If the cards have an ASPI manager and it is written to SPECIFICATION…
#87137 CDAUDIO problems. Message #87383
From: Laszlo Istvandi Corel Forum · CorelSCSI! November 19, 1993 10:30 AM
Rich, There is a lot of I/O occuring when an AUDIO CD is playing. This I/O takes up BUS time. You can expect bus delays. This is the way the SCSI specification was designed. A different controller may help a bit, but will not solve the problem entirely, I think.…
#86264 Corel CD Message #87382
From: Laszlo Istvandi Corel Forum · CorelSCSI! November 19, 1993 10:30 AM
Mark, The problem is that something is pointing to an invalid mosaic. Enter the WIN.INI file and search for the section [CorelGraphics4]. Rem this out with semicolons at the front of the line. Save and exit the INI fiel and restart Windows. When it comes up, reinstall the PCD software.…
From: Laszlo Istvandi Corel Forum · CorelSCSI! November 19, 1993 10:30 AM
Det, Here are some common things to check. Maker sure that the DTC controller is not set to SYNC negotiation. The NEC drive will have a problem with this. The version 1.02f is rather old. You can update to the latest driver free of charge plus shipping. Just place a…

From: Laszlo Istvandi Corel Forum · CorelSCSI! November 19, 1993 10:30 AM
Mary, If you read the posted apology you will understand the tardiness of my response. If the DRIVE is a DAT, add the line "DRIVEMASK=0" to the end of the WTBACKUP.INI file. If the drive is a QIC, add the same line but use 175 or 174 instead of the…

Peter, If you read the posted apology you will understand the tardiness of my response. Try downloading the file NETPROF.EXE from our BBS at 613-728-4752 @ 9600,8,n,1. The password is 'spring'. If you do not have SCSI Pro this will not work. I hope this helps. Laszlo

Piyush, If you read the posted apology you will understand the tardiness of my response. Make sure that the Adaptec bios and floppy controller are both disabled if you are not using them. I've seen an enabled bios cause this problem. I hope this helps. Laszlo

Marshall, If you read the posted apology you will understand the tardiness of my response. The 1542c had a termination problem associated with it. The problem would be more pronounced if the cable was sub-standard ( less than 90-132 Ohms impedance). This problem was found and rectified in there 1542c…

Larry, If you read the posted apology you will understand the tardiness of my response. The 1510 is probably not the best suggestion for your server. It also defaults to SYNC negotiation. I would swap the 1510 for the 1540. You should have no problem with this card. I currently…

Hi Terry: If you have purchased Corel SCSI 1.2 after September 1, 1993, and can provide a dated receipt, you are entitled to a free upgrade to SCSI 2. The only cost incurred would be the shipping and handling charge. Donna 🙂

There are definite limitations to the 1542c. It has random termination problems that require special cables to be used on all SCSI devices. The 1542cf takes care of the problem by adding SCSI FAST to the board. If you do not have many devices (external especially) then you may be…

There has been a conflict between Speedcache and various versions of Corelcdx and MSCDEX causing messages that state (particularly under DOS) that the drive isn't a proper format drive. You might watch out for it, but if you get that problem, Speedcache's the cause. Other than that, it shouldn't make…

The 6.0 PATCH works fine with 6.2, as I found out when I forgot to run it, tried accessing my multifunction drive, realized it, ran PATCH, rebooted, and it all worked.
