Use /~# parameter when you run Pathworks SETUP. This will allow you to see any error messages given by any driver that fails to load.

1If you hang on error code 83%, the Intel NDIS driver failed to load. Here are some possible reasons for the failure:

a Interrupt conflict - some machines use INT 5 for a sound card. Change the ni_irq to 10 or 11.

b Some machines require you to change the default memory setting. Try using CE00, C800, or D400. Make sure to make the corresponding changes:

in the mem parameter line in your PROTOCOL.INI,

in the memory exclusion of the EMM386.EXE line in your

CONFIG.SYS.

Sample PROTOCOL.INI change:

MEM=0XD400

c Some machines require using the mode=io parameter. Add mode=io to the Intel section in the PROTOCOL.INI file.

2If you hang on error code 92%, the NDIS driver loaded properly but the scheduler failed to load. This is usually because your interrupt in the PROTOCOL.INI doesn’t match the ni_irq line. Make sure you change the ni_irq line to match the INT you want to use. This process is described under DEC PATHWORKS in Chapter 2, Software Installation.
