@OverFlow

Thanks for the info about how Device Manager can act strange. By creating a plugin to load the Quantum drivers I've managed to get the tape drive recognized by UBCD4win (see below).

I still had to load up device manager and "Update Drivers" and the system found the correct ones in the [system32] directory and loads them successfully. The next thing I plan to look into is how to get the drivers to automatically apply themselves (I'll post back here once I figure it out).

@All
HOW TO GET A QUANTUM SDLT 600 TAPE DRIVE TO WORK IN UBCD4Win

To have UBCD4Win to recognize a tape drive, both the driver for the tape drive and a plugin .inf file is required. (Why a plugin and not as a driver? The SDLT 600 drivers lack an txtsetup.oem file thus the driver procedure didn't work, at least on my attempts).

In order to get the plugin to work create a folder inside of plugin directory (such as plugin/quan_sdlt600/) and place the below code into  quan_sdlt600.inf] and place it in the [quan_sdlt600] directory. Also a copy of the newest drivers are required (I used v4.3.33.0) inside of the [quan_sdlt600] directory.

All in all what it should look like at the end of the day:

plugin/
- quan_sdlt600/
    + quan_sdlt600.inf (the code below place in here)
    + XlateX32.sys (from the downloaded driver)
    + QDLTx32.sys (ditto)
    + QntmDlt.inf (ditto)

; just copy the following files from you driver disk to this folder

; The driver .sys file must goto the system32\drivers folder
XlateX32.sys=4,,1
QDLTx32.sys=4,,1

; The driver .inf file must goto the inf folder
QntmDlt.inf=20,,1

And if you want a help file (I haven't added a line to the .inf file to include this when you hit help when checking plugins, but I plan to do so). Save the following code to [quan_sdlt600.htm] for a better view.

EDIT: Added help line, enjoy.

Both the SCSI card and the Tape Drive have the "?" by it, listed by other "Unknown Devices" in the UBCD4Win Device Manager. I've copied it from the UBCD4win (under a "custom" director via the UBCD4Win Builder) onto the RAM drive and it still will not let me change the driver. I'm beginning to wonder if it is even possible to change drivers once the UBCD4Win has loaded.

When I boot into my installed copy of WinXP or Red Hat 8, both the tape drive and the SCSI controller are recognized and function as intended which leads me to believe that the SCSI hardware is properly configured and working.

I have taken the listed device ID and from it
[PCI\VEN_1000&DEV_0030&SUBSYS_10001000&REV_C15&11473D77&0&280010]
I have determined the SCSI card is a LSI Logic 1020/1030.

I wish to get both the SCSI card and the Tape Drive working under UBC4Win, so I didn't follow the second list you provided JSe. Sorry if it took you a while to write sad

EDIT: I may have gotten a step in the right direction for the  LSI SCSI adapter via this patch. The Device Manager still shows a "?" but it actually has a driver loaded when I clicked on the device. Now to get the Tape Drive driver (or a working version).

JSe, I followed your procedure and got a step further but no dice.

I opened the Device Manager and select the devices I want to update (the SCSI card and the Tape Drive).

When I select the device and click [Update Driver] (or [Reinstall Driver]) I can select my directory where the drivers are and load them. Everything looks great until I get to the last page of the driver update and see the following message:

"An error has occurred when installing/updating this device."

"Access is denied."

Any ideas?

Thank you very much, I'm going to look into that and post back my results.

Quantum SDLT 600 Tape Drive Driver main page, WinXP drivers.

LSI Logic 1020/1030 SCSI Adapter Win2000 drivers.

I've done some reading and it seems that the LSI Logic 1020/1030 drivers were added at some point but in my device manager via UBCD4win, it shows a "?" and when I check the driver info it is listed as no drivers loaded.

HW ID:
LSI Logic 1020/1030
PCI\VEN_1000&DEV_0030&SUBSYS_10001000&REV_C15&11473D77&0&280010
