Under the Computer Setup (F10) Utility Advanced
menu,
change the resource settings for the board.
The network controller
is defective.
Replace the NIC, or replace the system board if using an
onboard NIC.
Diagnostics passes, but the
workstation does not
communicate with the network.
Network drivers are not loaded, or
driver parameters do not match
current configuration.
1.
Be sure the network drivers are loaded and that the
driver parameters match the configuration of the

The expansion board installed is a
network card and conflicts with the
embedded network card.
Under the Computer Setup (F10) Advanced menu,
change the resource settings for the board.
Network controller stops working
without apparent cause.
The files containing the network
drivers are corrupted.
Reinstall the network drivers using the
