Location of Driver: \NT\E100ISA.SYS
\OEMSETNT.INF
GENERAL INSTALLATION
--------------------
1 The EtherExpress PRO/100 ISA adapter should be configured and
tested prior to setting it up in Windows NT. You can configure
the adapter with CONFIG.EXE. CONFIG cannot be run under Windows
NT, you must boot to DOS.
2 In NT, open Control Panel and click the Network icon.
3 From the Network Settings window, click "Add Adapter".
4 A list of available adapters will be displayed. Choose
"<Other> Requires disk from manufacturer" and click "Continue".
5 Insert the EtherExpress PRO/100 LAN Adapter Driver disk into drive A.
From the Insert Disk window, specify the path to the EtherExpress
PRO/100 ISA driver as A:\
6 From the Select OEM Option window, select "Intel EtherExpress PRO/100
ISA Adapter" and click "OK".
7 If more than one PRO/100 ISA is installed in your system, specify the
Serial Number of the adapter you are installing. If there is only one
PRO/100 ISA LAN adapter installed in your system just click "OK".
8 From the Network Settings window, click "OK".
NT will then perform the binding process. If any additional network
software options were installed, you may be prompted for specific
information about settings for those protocols.
9 Restart NT when prompted, in order for the changes to take effect.
Troubleshooting Tips:
======================
AT LEAST ONE DEVICE OR DRIVER FAILED DURING SYSTEM STARTUP
----------------------------------------------------------
If Windows NT fails to detect or initialize the EtherExpress PRO/100 ISA
adapter, you will get this error message in the Event Viewer:
"The Intel EtherExpress PRO/100 ISA LAN Adapter Driver service failed to
start due to the following error: A device attached to the system is
not functioning. "
Try these steps:
1 Verify that the I/O address and/or interrupt being used by the
EtherExpress PRO/100 ISA are not being used by any other device in your
workstation like a sound card, faxmodem, scanner, tape backup,
serial ports, parallel ports, etc.
2 Verify that the EtherExpress PRO/100 ISA passes all diagnostic tests
by running CONFIG.EXE from DOS and selecting "DIAG". If the
EtherExpress PRO/100 ISA adapter fails diagnostics it will not function
correctly under Windows NT.
If diagnostics fail, try setting the EtherExpress PRO/100 ISA to
a different I/O address or a different interrupt.
ADAPTER PASSES DIAGNOSTICS BUT STILL DOES NOT WORK WITH WINDOWS NT
------------------------------------------------------------------
If the adapter passes diagnostics but still does not work with Windows NT,
there could be a problem with your NT network configuration. If you've
made several attempts to configure Windows NT or had another adapter
installed before the EtherExpress PRO/100 ISA LAN adapter, it may be
necessary to change the Windows NT Network setup to the default settings
and reinstall the EtherExpress PRO/100 ISA LAN driver. Here's how:
1 Choose the Network icon in Control Panel.
2 Highlight the Intel EtherExpress PRO/100 ISA Adapter and click "Remove".
3 From the Network Settings window, click "OK".
4 Windows NT will have to reset for the changes to take effect. When
prompted, select "Restart Now".
5 Reinstall the EtherExpress PRO/100 ISA LAN adapter following the General
Installation steps above.
