It conflicted with my ST01 SCSI card. I solved the problem by turning the fast address decode switch off. I think we both have the same card. You switch dip switch 5 to on. If the problem sill persist try changing the auto channel dectect to standard. Can't remember which jumper this it, you should be able to find it in the manual that comes with it. I think that your VGA card most likely conflicts with your scanner, since I have a 80Mb Maxtor (I think IDE) drive. Adlib shouldn't cause much problems. If the above doesn't help try writting down all the access range (memory) of each card. If there is conflict than try to change one of them. If the interrupt lines conflict try to change it too. Well, I hope that helps, you really need to check all the manuals when installing. Especially if you install new cards after the system comes to you. I have a friend, he blew his CMOS and several chips when he plug in his SCSI card. The best part of it, it didn't happen immediately, but rather 2 weeks after he installed it. Strange huh? Good Luck!
