Section Four - Troubleshooting
This section describes some of the com- mon problems you may encounter while using your network adapter. When troubleshooting, you should make sure that the network you are con- nected to is functioning. If you suspect that the adapter is malfunctioning, replace it with another adapter which is known to function properly. Also try the adapter in another computer. This can indicate whether the adapter or computer causes the problem. If you can not resolve your difficulty after reading the following information, contact your dealer or vendor for assistance.
Most adapter failure after installation is caused by A) I/O base address and IRQ Line conflict, or B) Cable problems.
4.1 I/O Base Address and IRQ Conflict
Make sure that the I/O address and IRQ used by the adapter is not already in use by another device in your PC. If your PC has built- in serial ports then you will not be able to use IRQ 4 (COM1) or IRQ 3 (COM2). Other adapters in your system may already use addresses 0300H or 0320H (example: sound/audio card). Vary the settings on your network adapter by running SETUP again to eliminate the conflict. Running the diagnostic in SETUP will also help to detect configuration conflicts.
