•Use the BIOS setup program for your server to change the interrupt assigned to this adapter.
•Be sure that the adapter device driver loads AFTER the driver or any other device sharing this interrupt.
•Contact the manufacturer of the other adapter or

Overview
The diagnostic software lets you test adapters to see if there are any problems with the adapter hardware, cabling, or network connections. HP recommends that you run diagnostics every time you install an adapter.
Prerequisites
The diagnostic utility runs under
This diagostic utility is not a throughput measurement tool. The utility can test the adapter whether or not there is a responder on the network; however, to conduct a thorough test you should set up a second system on the network as a responder prior to starting a test.

NOTE: If there is a DOS network driver present, such as NDIS2 or
