#No LS2000\3000 Found?
4 messages in this thread
This just happened to me also (which is why I'm looking in this forum): I ran
Install, it added the ASPI driver to my CONFIG.SYS, I rebooted, and got the
same "LS2000/3000" error. I ran Install a second time, but it wanted to updated
my CONFIG.SYS again (which means the driver wasn't loaded). However, I'm not
using an Adaptec board, which seemed to be identified as the culprit in other
responses here. I have a Compaq Deskpro 486/50L (EISA) with a Compaq SCSI
Option Adapter, which is connected to a Compaq internal 525 MB tape drive and a
Sony CDU 6211-10 CD-ROM drive.
I'm running OS/2 2.1. I haven't had any problem using the tape drive, using
standard IBM drivers plus a driver from Sytron. The CD-ROM is a new addition to
the system (though it's an old drive), and I haven't been able to get it to
work yet. OS/2 2.x supports this particular CD-ROM, but it doesn't work with
the standard drivers. Plus, when the CD-ROM is attached to the SCSI port, the
tape drive doesn't work either (they have different unit numbers, so that's not
the problem). I tried using a SCSI driver from Compaq that I downloaded from
their BBS, but that hung my system at bootup. I'm trying the CorelSCSI drivers
now because other people have had luck with them, but I can't get the ASPI
driver to load. Note that I have no other SCSI devices in the system.
I think I'll quit for now. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks.
This message normally means that the ASPI manager for the SCSI controller that
you are using is not loaded. If we find no ASPI manager we default to
installing our own. This has been change so taht no ASPI amanger is installed
if none is found. If you ensure that your ASPI manger is loaded you should
have no problems.

I got the error while trying to load the ASPI manager that came with CorelSCSI.
I don't have another ASPI manager for the card.
I was told by the Compaq rep in the Compaq forum that the SCSI adapter I'm
using doesn't support CD-ROM drives, so I'll have to get a new SCSI card
anyway.
You've got to have an ASPI manager for the card; the Corel manager is for a
few specific cards only.
