Troubleshooting
1. Are you sure you have installed the drivers?
Make sure you install them on every “profile” that you have set up.
If you install a “Service Pack”, be sure to install the drivers again
(Windows Service Packs might replace some of our drivers.)’
2. Try moving the Card Drive to a different PCI slot (some slots share
IRQs with unfriendly on-board peripherals). Try all combinations.
Also test the PCI slot with another PCI board like a network adapter… there are
some motherboard/Windows combinations that do not work very well !
3. In Win9x, when you insert a card it can take Windows 30-60s to
configure it ! Be Patient.
4. If in Win9x your card is not recognized (just a dash is shown by the
Slot in the PC-Card Properties screen), try turning off “Automatic
selection” in the “Global Settings” tab, and put a Start address of
“d0000”, and an End address of “df000”, then re-start the PC.
5.
If when you plug in your card, Windows prompts that it needs to
restart, you have probably run out of free IRQs. Try disabling or
removing unused devices. Also Check the BIOS to make sure that all
known available IRQs are set to Plug-n-Play in the BIOS (i.e. not set to
“Reserved for use by ISA board”).
6.
If all else fails, note the following BEFORE calling for support:
Windows version, motherboard type (chipset & processor), resources
used by the Card Drive & PC-Card.
