Windows NT workstation or server.
***


(2) REQUIRED FILES
==================

In a single directory

- OEMNADSK.HLP	Help file for SK-NET drivers

- OEMNADSK.DLL	Dialogs for SK-NET drivers

- OEMSETUP.INF	Setup script for the driver

- SKFMNT.SYS	The driver
***


(3) INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
=============================

Step 1: Start Windows NT.

Step 2: Open the CONTROL PANEL.

Step 3: Start NETWORK.

Step 4: Select ADD ADAPTER.

Step 5: Select <OTHER>.

Step 6: Type in the path to OEMSETUP.INF.

Step 7: Select the driver presented and select the appropriate configuration.
	Then choose OK and restart your system.
***


(4) TROUBLESHOOTING
===================

If you encounter problems using the SK-NET FDDI MCA Adapter, please
re-read carefully the instructions above and the documentation supplied
with the system.

If this does not help, please send us a description of the problems you have.

Also refer to your system log file (using the event viewer) and check
it for entries from SKFMNT.

The last 5 DWORDs of the logging data are:

- Slot number,

- Interrupt number,

- Dma arbitration level,

- Base I/O port, and

- Vendor code (3 bytes) / adapter id (1 byte)

of the adapter that caused the error.

Follows a list of some events, possible reasons (may be incomplete)
and suggestions to fix your problem.

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.
Help:		Check 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:	5007 -	Timed out during an operation.
Reason(s):	Wrong interrupt, DMA channel or base address.
		Cable not connected.
Help:		Start a driver under e.g. DOS (with the same resource usage)
		  and see if it works.
		Check cabling.

---------------

Event ID:	5009 -	Does not support the configuration supplied.
Reason(s):	Shared interrupt configured.
Help:		The driver does not support interrupt sharing.
		  Please re-configure the adapter to not using shared
		  interrupts.

---------------

Event ID:	5014 -	The adapter is disabled.
			The driver cannot open the adapter.
Reason(s):	The adapter was not enabled at system startup.
Help:		First, check the system configuration. If it looks ok,
		  run the diagnostic program supplied with the adapter.


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 made by SKFMNT.

(5) HISTORY
===========

v2.00 Rev. A
  - OID_GEN_DRIVER_VERSION now returns NDIS version (3.00) instead of driver
    version.
  - On EISA and MCA machines the installation script inserts the keyword
    <BusNumber> into the registry.
v2.00 Rev. C
  - Fixed test for successful memory allocation.
v2.00 Rev. D
  - Runs on multiprocessor systems.
  - LINK_SPEED reporting corrected.
v2.01
  - Rejecting unsupported filters.
v2.10
  - Included EnhancedNonLlc mode.
  - Implemented limited promiscuous mode (receive all non-LLC frames).
    This may be disabled by setting <LimitPromiscuous> to 1 in the registry.
  - SBA/ESS added
v2.10 Rev. C
  - Fixes a problem with string parameter parsing (may prevent SBA/ESS from
    starting)
v2.20
  - Fixes OID problems seen with the new NDIS tester.
v2.30
  - Fixed system crashing due to TCPIP reentrancy problems (stack
    overflow).
  - No longer writing a "Timeout" error log entry under heavy load.
  - Double receive buffers allow parallel execution of DMA and receive
    indication.
  - Reset mechanism; both "soft" (caused by protocol) and "hard" (caused by
    timeout watchdog).
v2.31
  - Software or hardware failure detected by driver caused the driver to
    stop (endless software loop).
  - Sender could deadlock when network load was heavy.
  - Risk of missing receive frames due to receive overflow minimized by
    increasing the receive FIFO size.
v2.32
  - Fixed lookahead length problems (OID_GEN_CURRENT_LOOKAHEAD) experienced
    with new NDIS Tester (NCT).
