SYMPTOMS
When you are using a Quantum xp32150 SCSI hard disk with a Future Domain 8xx-series SCSI controller, Fd8xx.sys times out repeatedly. The system may pause and application error messages may occur.



CAUSE
An incompatibility exists between the Quantum xp32150 hard disk and the Future Domain 8xx-series controller.



RESOLUTION
Removing the xp32150 hard disk from the SCSI bus prevents the timeouts from occurring.



MORE INFORMATION
When Windows NT is installed on the Quantum hard disk, frequent timeouts can result. A demonstration of the timeouts can be performed by running Disk Administrator and attempting to detect tape devices at the same time. This can cause the system to pause for up to 10 seconds.
