Message
The configuration
(.cfg) file used by
the ICU for this card
is now invalid or does
not exist. Do you wish
to load the file?
No configuration
(.cfg) file exists for
the card being modi-
fied. Do you want to
load one?
This is an EISA sys-
tem. Use an ECU, not
the ICU, to configure
your system.
You have added a card
using settings differ-
ent from factory
default. Reconfigure
the card to the set-
tings in the next
display (see the
card's manual) before
installing it.
NOTE: For the full name of an abbreviation or acronym used in this table, see the Glossary.
Table C-1. Configuration Utility Messages (continued)
Probable Cause
This message appears when
you try to add a listed card
and the configuration file for
this card has been corrupted
or deleted from the data-
base.
This message appears when
you modify a card and its
configuration file does not
exist or has been deleted.
This message appears if you
attempt to run the ICU on an
EISA system.
This message can appear in
two situations:
You added an ISA
expansion card,
selected OK, and the
ICU had to use resource
values different from
the card's defaults to
avoid conflicts.
You added an ISA
expansion card,
selected Advanced, and
chose resource values
different from the card's
defaults.
Corrective Action
You can get a copy of the configuration file from
the original ISA Configuration Utility Diskette that
you used to create the backup ICU diskette. Use the
following procedure:
1.
Insert the original ISA Configuration Util-
ity Diskette into drive A.
2.
Change to the db subdirectory on the diskette
drive.
3.
Use a text editor to search the icu.ndx file
for the card ID of the card you want to add or
modify.
The name of the configuration file is part of
this card ID. For example, if the card ID is
ICU0200, the configuration file is
!icu0200.cfg.
4.
Copy the configuration file from the origi-
nal ICU diskette to the backup diskette.
To use the ICU, you must load the utility onto a
non-EISA system.
Make a note of the new card configuration shown
in the Card Resource Usage dialog box displayed
after this message. Change jumper settings on the
ISA expansion card to match the new card config-
uration.
