Hardware compatibility issues

Except where noted, the hardware described in the SCO OpenServer documentation has been tested. However, because the manufacturers of compatible machines or add-on peripherals may change configuration, functionality, or firmware at any time, no guarantee is implied.

To determine whether hardware components are compatible with your machine, you must know the processor (for example, Pentium III, Pentium 4, AMD) and the bus architecture (PCI, PCI Express, and so forth) that it uses. You should also be aware of the type of disk controller in your system.

If you have added any adapters, make sure that all switches or software-controlled settings are set as recommended in the manufacturer's hardware manual for that board. Some hardware requires specific switches or software-controlled settings to work with SCO OpenServer. If your hardware does not work with SCO OpenServer with the settings as shipped, contact the hardware manufacturer for the proper settings. Hardware compatibility issues known to SCO can be found in the resources listed in ``SCO OpenServer hardware support''.
