- I am having a problem configuring my ethernet card on a PS/2 model 80
- I have an SMC 16 bit ethernet card.
- When I run the diagnostics I get the following:
-
- 8013WP/A
- BASE I/O =0800
- IRQ INT =3
- RAM =16k
- RAM Address =D8000
- ROM =Disabled
- ROM Address =C0000
-
- The card is in Slot 5
-
- I am using the wd8003e.com (Nov 91) driver with the following setup:
- wd8003e 0x60 -o 0x3 0x0800 0xD8000
-
- The packet driver does not load.
-
- I also tried the packet driver that came with the card:
- 8003pkdr.exe /s:5
- I have version 2.03
-
- This packet driver does load, however when I run msdos-kermit
- I get the following message
- Unable to Connect to a Packet Driver
- Cannot Initialize TCP/IP, quitting
-
- I have gotten the wd8003e packet driver to work with non MCA machines
-
- If anybody has a solution to this problem please e-mail it to me.
- All and any help is very appriciated.

- I have been using the 8003pkdr.exe driver that comes with the SMC card,
- version 2.03, without a problem. It's in the pkt_drv subdirectory on the
- floppy that comes with the card. If you do not have version 2.03 you
- can download it from vax.ftp.com or just send me a note and I'll put
- copy somewhere you can find it.
