    AdvanSys UW/U2W/U3W DOS ASPI Manager
    ------------------------------------

    This file contains important information and last-minute changes
    regarding the AdvanSys UW/U2W/U3W ASPI Manager for DOS.


    Introduction
    ------------

    ADV3550.SYS is the AdvanSys UW/U2W/U3W ASPI Manager for DOS.
    It is designed to support the AdvanSys Ultra, Ultra2 and Ultra3 Wide
    Host Bus Adapters. It will support MS-DOS(tm) version 4.01 and later.

    ADV3550.SYS is loaded in the CONFIG.SYS file. For a default installation,
    simply add this line:

    DEVICE=ADV3550.SYS

    Command-line options can be added on the same line, separated by forward
    slashes.  For example:

    DEVICE=ADV3550.SYS /P/V

    ADV3550.SYS can also be loaded into high memory, if the appropriate
    memory manager has been installed prior to loading ADV3550.


    Command-line options
    --------------------

    There are several command-line options that can be used with ADV3550.SYS.
    Most installations will not require any of these, but there are some
    circumstances where one or more may be necessary.

    /NI
    By default, this option is off because NetWare Installation will hang
    if this option is specified. However, to enable this option will get
    better performance when running ASPI application under DOS.

    /L
    By default, logical units (LUNs) are not supported by ADV3550.SYS.
    To enable LUN support, specify this option on the command-line.

    /P
    ADV3550 will pause and wait for the user to press a key before continuing
    once loaded.

    /V
    A verbose display will be printed during initialization, showing adapter
    I/O ports, IRQs, and other miscellaneous information.

    DEVICE=ADV3550.SYS /P /V


    Command Queueing and DOS
    ------------------------

    Because DOS is a single-tasking operating system, there is probably
    no need to enable command queueing in the AdvanSCSI Setup (Ctrl+A).
    Testing has shown that in some circumstances command queueing will
    actually degrade performance under DOS.
