SYMPTOMS
========

When you install two Token Ring network adapters on a Windows NT Server
computer, it will force both adapters to use Source Routed frames. In a non-
bridged environment, this isolates the computer to the physical ring it is
attached to. Removing an adapter from Control Panel does not solve this problem
as the adapter Registry values remain.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT Workstation and
Windows NT Server version 3.5. This problem was corrected in the latest U.S.
Service Pack for Windows NT version 3.5. For information on obtaining the
Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base
