I ask because: 1) The GVP manual suggests otherwise (d*mn vague!) 2) GVP tech support asked me if I had tried removing the terminating resistors. 3) The 2091 has a section of the board labeled "terminating resistors" At any rate, I think the board has problems above any possible termination trouble. I took it into a dealer who had a 2000+2091+Quantum 52LPS. This combination had been working flawlessly for months. I took the 2091 out, plugged in the GVP and hooked up the 52LPS to it. "Unexpected SCSI Status $1E/$68" I sent the board back to GVP on Friday. Eric Edwards: c506634 @ "I say we take off and nuke the entire site Inet: umcvmb.missouri.edu from orbit.
