SYMPTOMS
========
When you install a Thomas Conrad TC4045 Token Ring network adapter, the adapter
is detected properly but may not function because it is assigned the wrong
resources.
CAUSE
=====
Windows 95 assigns the factory default IRQ and DMA channel resources for this
network adapter, which may conflict with other device settings. Windows 95
assigns a correct base I/O address for the adapter.
RESOLUTION
==========
To assign the correct IRQ and DMA channel resources for the TC4045 network
adapter, follow these steps:
1. In Control Panel, double-click the System icon.
2. On the Device Manager tab, click Computer, and then click the Properties
button.
3. Click the Interrupt Request (IRQ) option button, and note an available IRQ
setting.
4. Click the Direct Memory Access (DMA) option button, and note an available DMA
setting.
5. Click Cancel.
6. Double-click the Network Adapters branch to open it, click the TC4045
adapter, and then click Properties.
7. On the Resources tab, click the Use Automatic Settings check box to clear it.
8. In the Resource Settings box, click Interrupt Request. Click Change Setting,
and then enter the IRQ setting you noted in step 3. Click OK.
9. Repeat step 8 for the DMA channel setting. Click OK until you return to
Control Panel.
