NMI interrupt.
Occurs on: 286 only. This is an Abend error.
Meaning: The Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI) is interrupt 2 in the 286
CPU. This error will occur if the 286 CPU receives a pulse on
its NMI line but is unable to identify the source of it. This
interrupt should never occur in NetWare.
Cause: This error is most often caused by incorrectly configuring the
cards in the file server such that I/O and/or memory conflicts
occur. See Technical Bulletin #140. The I/O base address 340H
cannot be used because the DCB uses it. A second DCB utilizes
I/O base address 348H. A memory address of E000H or above
cannot be used on any 286 machine.
Solution: Eliminate I/O and memory conflicts by reconfiguring the
boards in the file server. See Technical Bulletin #140.
