TITLE :TC5043 Adapters Require ROM Upgrade
PRODUCT :Windows NT
PROD/VER:3.10
OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
KEYWORDS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
- Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Thomas Conrad TC5043 series of network adapters are not on the Windows
NT Hardware Compatibility List, but they can be used as an NE2000 when they
are in NE2000 mode. The NDIS driver provided with Windows NT does not
function properly with revision A of this board when it is in NE2000-
compatibility mode.
Thomas Conrad has an upgraded ROM available for the TC5043 that allows the
board to operate as NE2000-compatible. Please contact Thomas Conrad
technical support to obtain this ROM upgrade.
NOTE: There are two versions of the TC5043: one uses SMT (Surface Mount
Technology) and one uses the standard DIP (Dual Inline Package) technology.
The SMT boards CANNOT be upgraded because the ROM is not a removable chip.
The cards that can be upgraded have the ROM chip in a socket on the left
side of the card, just above center. The ROM has a white sticker on it with
a number; have this number ready when you call Thomas Conrad to request
your upgrade.
The TC5043 series of network adapters are manufactured by Thomas Conrad, a
vendor independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise,
regarding these products' performance or reliability.
