The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows for Workgroups version 3.1
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
When you configure Windows for Workgroups for a Novell/Anthem NE2000 card, you
can select an IRQ between 2 and 5 (inclusive)--even though the newer
Novell/Anthem NE2000 cards support IRQs 2-14.
CAUSE
=====
The Windows for Workgroups NETWORKS.INF file contains 2-5 as a valid IRQ range
for Novell/Anthem NE2000 cards to maintain compatibility with older cards.
RESOLUTION
==========
If you have one of the newer Novell/Anthem cards (or a clone) and you are using
an IRQ in the 6-14 range, do one of the following:
- Select "NE2000 Compatible" instead of "Novell/Anthem NE2000" when configuring
Windows for Workgroups.
-or-
- Edit the PROTOCOL.INI file and change the IRQ to the correct value.
