* Trouble Shooting

   1. Message: "!! No W89C840 card detected"
        Solution: Make sure that your W89C840 card is plugged steadily.

   2. Message: "!! No free W89C840 card"
        Solution: One driver for one card. Make sure that there is less
        drivers loaded than card plugged. If option keyword SelectedID is
        assigned, make sure that all node ID's assigned is correct or let
        drivers without SelectedID be loaded after those with SelectedID.

   3. Message: "!! Cannot open PROTMAN$"
        Solution: Make sure that PROTMAN.DOS is loaded before W840ND.DOS,
        and it is initialized successfully. If the syntax of PROTOCOL.INI
        is incorrect, PROTMAN$ cannot be loaded.

   4. Message: "!! Bad Parameter in PROTOCOL.INI"
        Solution: The parameter is invalid. For example, the correct
        SelectedID format need two single quotation signs ('). If you fail
        to do it, this message will be shown.

   5. Message: "!! Unknown Keyword in PROTOCOL.INI"
        Solution: W840ND only accepts some keywords descirbed as below:
          (1) Burst Length,
              used to set burst length.
              default value of burst length is 32.
              # Burst Length defines the maximum number of long words that can
              # be transferred within one PCI burst transaction.
              # The reasonable values are 1/2/4/8/16/32 longwords.
          (2) Cache Alignment,
              used to set cache alignment.
              default value of cache alignment is 3.
              # Cache Alignment defines the address boundary for data burst.
              # The reasonable values are 1(8 longword alignment),
              # 2(16 longword alignment) and 3(32 longword alignment).
          (3) Transmit Threshold,
              used to set transmit threshold.
              default value of transmit threshold is 0.
              # This value decides the transmit threshold level of the transmit
              # FIFO. Transmission will start immediately after the transmit
              # FIFL has reached the threshold level or full pkt has been
              # transferred to the transmit FIFO if the frame length is less
              # than the transmit threshold level.
              #               TxThreshold         Transmit Threshold Level
              #                  00H                     full pkt
              #                  01H                     16 bytes
              #                  02H                     32 bytes
              #                  --                      --
              #                  7FH                      2032 bytes"
          (4) Nway Function,
              used to disable or enable the autonegotiation function.
              The default value of nway is on.
              # The reasonable values are ON and OFF.
          (5) Line Speed,
              used to set the line speed.
              default value of line speed is 0.
              # This adapter can be operationed in 10M or 100M Mbps.
              # The reasonable values are 0(auto detect line speed by the
              # driver), 10(10M) or (100)100M.
          (6) Full Duplex Function,
              used to set the full duplex function.
              default value of full duplex function is AUTO.
              # This adapter can be in half or full duplex mode. In half duplex
              # mode, the W89C840 can only either transmit or receive. In full
              # duplex mode, the W89C840 can transmit and receive at the same
              # time.
              # The reasonable values are Auto(auto detect full duplex function
              # by the driver), Diable(disable full duplex function) and
              # Enable(enable full duplex function).
          (7) SelectedID.
              # This parameter is necessary when your system is equipped with
              # multiple W89C840 cards. For each driver, you must assign a
              # unique physical address. The value of this parameter is a
              # hexadecimal string of 12 digits.

        Other keywords are unknown. Notice that, PCI bus need not assign
        IOBASE and INTERRUPT.

   6. Message: "!! Specified SELECTEDID is absent or bound"
        Solution: You specified a node ID at keyword SelectedID, and this ID
        is bound by another drivers or can not be found. Make sure that the
        ID is correct.

   7. Condition: when running with the older version of EMM386.EXE, PC may
      hang on loading TCP/IP.
        Solution: The older version of EMM386.EXE can cause some PCI computer
        to hang. Please update EMM386.EXE by version 4.49 or later. Version
        4.49 ships with DOS version 6.22.
