The driver corresponds to the NDIS 3.0 Specification as delivered with the first release of Windows NT. Version / Date / Author of this file: v1.02 / 13-Feb-1995 / T. Schuber Version / Date / Author of the referred subject: v1.02 / 17-Feb-1995 / T. Schuber This file contains (1) overview (2) installation instructions (3) troubleshooting =============================================================================== (1) OVERVIEW ============ This README explains how to install the Token Ring driver SKTOKNT.SYS for Windows NT. *** (2) INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS ============================= To install the driver, you need the following files: Preferrably in the root of the installation disk !SKDD100.cfg EISA config file for SK-NET TR4/16 !SKDD300.cfg EISA config file for SK-NET TR4/16+ In a single directory OEMNADSK.HLP Help file for SK-NET drivers OEMNADSK.DLL Dialogs for SK-NET drivers OEMSETUP.INF Setup script for ethernet driver SKTOKNT.SYS The driver How to install: Step 1: On an EISA machine the SK-NET ISA adapters should be configured using the appropriate EISA configuration file. Step 2: After having configured your adapter, please start Windows NT. Step 3: Start NETWORK from the CONTROL PANEL. Step 4: Select ADD ADAPTER and then and type in the path to OEMSETUP.INF. Select the driver presented and select the appropriate configuration. Step 5: Then select OK and restart your system. (Protocol software should be installed.) *** (3) TROUBLESHOOTING ==================== If you encounter problems using the SK-NET Token Ring adapter under Windows NT, please re-read carefully the instructions above and the documentation supplied with the system. Additionally, you should look into your system log file (using the event viewer) and check it for entries from SKTOKNT. The last 5 DWORDs of the logging data are: Slot number (for ISA adapters that are not EISA-configured: -1), Interrupt number, Dma channel, Base I/O port and Vendor code (3 bytes) / adapter id (1 byte) of the adapter that caused the error. Following is a list of some events, possible reasons (may be incomplete) and suggestions to fix your problem. Event ID: 5000 - Has encountered a conflict in resources and could not load. Reason(s): ??? Help: ??? --------------- Event ID: 5001 - Could not allocate the resources necessary for operation. Reason(s): Not enough RAM or pagefile too small. Help: ... --------------- Event ID: 5003 - Could not find an adapter. Reason(s): Wrong slot or IO Port Adapter physically not installed. System configuration information invalid. Help: Check slot/port settings. Look if adapter is physically present. Check system configuration. --------------- Event ID: 5004 - Could not connect to the interrupt number supplied. Reason(s): The selected interrupt is already in use. Help: Select free interrupt. --------------- Event ID: 5005 - Has encountered an internal error and has failed. Reason(s): Miscellanuous. Help: ??? --------------- Event ID: 5007 - Timed out during an operation. Reason(s): Wrong interrupt, dma channel or base address. Cable not connected. Help: Start a driver under DOS (with the same resource usage) and look if it works. Check cabling. --------------- Event ID: 5009 - Does not support the configuration supplied. Reason(s): Invalid IRQ or DMA given. Old .cfg file used for configuration. Help: Check configuration. Please use the new .cfg file supplied with this driver or an even newer one. If your special problem is not listed or the error persists, please send us your system log file or at least the event id number and the logging data (as dwords) of the entries written by SKTOKNT. *** End of information file ***
