Intel PRO/100B Adapter Self-Test Failure

If an Intel PRO/100B network adapter is installed in any of PCI slots 4 through 12, it may fail
the loopback portion of the self-test. However, if you finish configuring the adapter for use,
the adapter works correctly after you restart the system.

failed power supply), push the supply completely into the system. If the supply does not
power on, simply pull the power supply out, wait at least 45 seconds, and push it back into
place. The DC OK LED on the back of the power supply illuminates to indicate that the
