| Forsaken---> http://www.stopstart.freeserve.co.uk/smilie/stick.gif
has a Windows 2000 computer that has an integrated PnP SCSI controller.
He wants to install another SCSI controller that can provide better performance than his exisiting integrated PnP SCSI controller. The two SCSI controllers require the same system resources and, as a result, cannot work together.
Forsaken does not want to use the old SCSI controller.
Which of the following should he do in Device Manager to enable the new SCSI controller to work?(Select the best choice.)
A. Disable the old SCSI controller.
B. Uninstall the old SCSI controller.
C. Remove the old SCSI controller.
D. He can not do this in Device Manager and needs to buy a new motherboard without an integrated SCSI PnP controller.
Good luck and see you tomorrow for the answer!! | |

| A. | |

| A is an option or personally I would go for E. Disable in BIOS  | |
|
| Hmmm.....I want to say (B) because its something that will not be used again in the immediate future. But (A) will give up the resources but still leave the driver intact for use later use if needed.
I am going to say (A). | |

| I'll have to go with answer (A).
Uninstalling the old SCSI controller will only have the OS detect it again on restart unless you disable it in BIOS like Enforcer mentioned. However, this isn't an option for this question. | |

| A works for me. | |

And the answer is.....A
You can not uninstall the old integrated SCSI controller because it will get re-detected upon boot-up.
You can not remove the old SCSI controller because it is integrated.
However, you can accomplish the objective through Device Manager and Disable the old SCSI controller.
Another option would be to disable the integrated controller through the BIOS as Enforcer stated, but I left this out on purpose to focus on the abilities/features of Device Manager. 
Nice job everyone. |
