- If the EtherLink III LAN PC Card diagnostic tests fail,
- the PC Card may not be defective.
-
- Check the following:
-
- 1. Make sure that the PC Card is operating in a computer
- containing the PC Card standard Type II or Type III slots.
-
- 2. Make sure that the PC Card is completely seated in its
- slot. Review the installation instructions in the
- EtherLink III LAN PC Card user guide.
-
- 3. Make sure that your computer is running DOS 3.1 or
- higher and that no device drivers or memory managers are
- loaded.
-
- 4. Inspect all cables and connections.
-
- 5. If you are running the Echo Exchange test, make sure
- that the EtherLink III LAN PC Card is securely connected
- to a properly cabled network and an echo server is set up
- on the network.
-
- 6. If you are configuring the I/O base address or interrupt
- request level make sure that the settings you select for
- these parameters do not conflict with any other peripheral
- or software program installed in the computer. If your
- computer has Card Services, these parameters are set
- automatically, and you cannot change them.
-
- 7. The computer in which the EtherLink III LAN PC Card
- is installed may be defective. Install the PC Card in a
- known functioning computer and run the tests again.
-
- 8. Replace the failed EtherLink III LAN PC Card with a
- known working PC Card, with the same configuration. If
- the second PC Card fails, something is probably wrong
- with the test environment, not with the PC Card.
