TROUBLESHOOTING

Make sure the PCI slot is configured to support INTA.

Be sure that INTA for the slot is assigned to a free interrupt

K(IRQ) number.

Check the BIOS Setup program’s PCI parameters for the slot where the TigerCard 1000 network card is installed. Be sure the slot is configured for level-triggered interrupts instead of edge-triggered interrupts. An example of typical PCI parameters follows:

PCI Slot

#:

(slot number where the network

 

 

card

is installed)

Master:

 

Enabled

 

Slave:

 

Enabled

 

Latency Timer:

40

(range is 20 to 255)

Interrupt

Type:

Level-Triggered

Interrupt

Number:

(choose any number the BIOS

 

 

Setup supplies that does not

 

 

conflict

with another

 

 

installed

card)

Note that the wording of these parameters varies with different computers, and not all parameters may be configurable.

Always consult your computer manual for information on changing motherboard jumper settings and BIOS Setup program parameters for use with PCI network cards. If you set a motherboard jumper and modify the computer’s BIOS Setup, make sure the jumper and BIOS settings match.
