SCSI Disk not found

Ok, its the "System Configuration Utility" supplied by Compaq not the
BIOS. 

I added puc to kernel and it still has the same irq. 

This machine was in the closet for a long while... and it had no
operating system installed when I got it, but I think it may have had
windows NT. 

Thanks for your help,

Michael
