I am having a problem with getting my scsi card to be recognized by my
system; I don't know if it's because of my CD burner or because of the
scsi card itself; the card is the card that came with the scanner. From
what I can make of it it's a UDS-IS11 made by a company called
DOMEX(www.domexusa.com). So I'm stuck in the card-recognition part, and
I'm hoping like crazy it doesn't mean I have to go buy a real SCSI card.
