************************************************************
The version of the software included in the distribution
package is specified in the file, RELNOTES.TXT.
************************************************************
* 7. TROUBLESHOOTING
************************************************************
It is assumed that the system requirements from Section 3
above have been satisfied.
Issue: System locks up during Device Manager Remove or
during restart.
Solution: System lockup can occur during Restart as a
result of several possible system issues. In
the event of system lockup, restart the machine
and view Device Manager. If devices are listed
properly and system experiences no further
problems, then .INF file restore process was
successful. If devices are not configured
correctly try re-running the procedures outlined
in Section 4.
If this does not fix problems or further
problems are experienced, re-install the
operating system.
Issue: After running the setup program and rebooting the
machine, Windows claims that it cannot find one
of the following files:
ESDI_506.pdr
Solution: Click Browse in the dialog box where this problem
occurs and locate the
<Windows>\System\IOSubsys
directory and click OK. The system should
be able to locate this file in this directory
and continue re-enumerating for the new devices.
Issue: After running the setup program and rebooting the
machine, Windows claims that it cannot find one
of the following files:
UHCD.SYS
USBD.SYS
USBHUB.SYS
Solution: Click Browse in the dialog box where this problem
occurs and locate the
<Windows>\System32\drivers
directory and click OK. The system should
be able to locate this file in this directory
and continue re-enumerating for the new devices.
