4-8 CHAPTER 4: STANDARD INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION

If you want to use the same settings on other adapters, you can save the configuration settings to a file. Select <Save> under the <File Options> command button in the Adapter Configuration dialog box. Enter a filename, for example:

3CTOK.SET

Select a directory using the arrow keys and press [Enter]. This saves the settings to the default file 3CTOK.SET in the directory you selected. Refer to the on-line help (by pressing [F1]) for more information.

Changing Settings for Multiple Adapters

To change the settings for multiple adapters, return to the main window of the Configuration and Diagnostic Program, press [F10], and select the next adapter to configure. Repeat steps 8 through 13 for each adapter. Select each adapter as it needs to be configured.

When all adapters have been set to the desired settings, proceed to Chapter 5, “Installing Network Drivers.”

Video Conflicts with BIOS/MMIO and Shared RAM Addresses

Many PC video cards use the memory range from C0000 to C7FFF. The TokenDisk diskette configuration program supports settings within this same memory range for the BIOS/MMIO and Shared RAM address parameters. The configuration program identifies a conflict on most PCs, but will then allow this configuration to be saved.

If you save such a configuration despite a conflict with the video card, the PC will not operate until the adapter is removed. The adapter must then be reconfigured in a PC without the conflicting setting or must be returned to 3Com for reset.

3Com therefore strongly recommends using settings other than C0000, C2000, C4000, or C6000 for the ROM and Shared RAM addresses.
