Reboot the machine by turning off the power and turning it back
on again (cold boot). If the driver still fails to load, the cause is
generally a resource conflict. Common causes of resource
conflicts include sound systems, other PC Card adapters, and built
in ROMs. The resources required for a PRO/100 CardBus adapter
include a memory window (MEM keyword), an interrupt (INT
keyword), and an I/O address (IOADDRESS keyword). The
default settings are indicated below.
Review your computer documentation to determine what
resources are available, or use a trial and error approach. The
table on the next page shows a suggested trial and error sequence.
If you use this method, be sure to add a memory exclusion from
C000-DFFF to the EMM386.EXE line until a suitable memory
location has been found. Then the memory exclusion can be
reduced to a 4K window. Perform a cold boot between each trial
to ensure that the PRO/100 CardBus adapter and PC Card sockets
are completely reset.
When the PRO/100 CardBus adapter driver is loaded it either
reads a configuration file or uses command line parameters to
determine which resources it should use. See the list of driver
types, driver file names, and configuration methods earlier in this
chapter.
The default resources used by the PRO/100 CardBus adapter
(except with the 32-bit ODI driver) when no other setting is stated
are:
