LAN Problems with NDIS2 Drivers
Symptom
Solution
No adapter detected.
LAN+Modem is not in the PCMCIA slot, or is
not being recognized by C&SS.
Card services could not allocate
LAN IRQ.
The value specified for Interrupt in the
PROTOCOL.INI
file is not available. Try using
another address.
Use File/Edit Configuration to check that the
LAN IRQ does not conflict with any IRQs
already in use. If so, change the IRQ setting
(make the same change in
PROTOCOL.INI)
.
Card services could not allocate
LAN I/O PORT base address.
Bank select port failed to
respond.
The I/O base-address value in the
PROTOCOL.INI
file is not available for use. Try
another port address. Check that the base
address setting in Card and Socket Services
matches that in
PROTOCOL.INI
.
Enabler cannot activate the card.
Try to make more resources available (BIOS).
Enabler activates the card but it
cannot see the server.
Try to force Enabler to use a different IRQ
(possibly found by CONFIG), for example:
FMENABLE IRQ=A
Where A is the hexadecimal value of 10.
Enabler fails to find the card
Verify the EMM386.EXE settings in
CONFIG.SYS.
