Smart Array Problem

[Ayman Altounji]

Having configured a 1500 /P75 as DSL - server, I finally applied the 2.26 bios to the original smart array controller. After that the following message appears during every boot process:

1777 Slot 4 Drive Array - Proliant Storage System Problem Detected
SCSI Port 1: Interrupt Signal Inoperative - Check SCSI Cables

and the system halts. After pressing F1 WIN98 seems to start normal, although the disk speed seems to be a little slow (OK, it?s only a P75).

Changing controllers (all with system revision 2.26), cables or fixed disks did not change anything.

Do I have a problem (aside of the necessary user intervention at boot time)?
Do I have to downgrade the Smart Array BIOS? And if, where do I get the necessary old BIOS file?
Or is it some strange hardware problem.

Any input is appreciated, thanks in advance

upgrade the system bios to match the controller bios...ie to the latest...otherwise reflash the controller..it could have been a bad flash
