SYMPTOMS
========

When inventorying a client computer running Windows 95, the hardware scan will
not report the interrupt request (IRQ) of the network adapter card installed on
the client; it is reported with a value of "<null>" in the NetCard group
of the Personal Computer Properties window.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
version 1.2. A supported fix is now available, but has not been fully
regression-tested and should be applied only to systems experiencing this
specific problem. Unless you are severely impacted by this specific problem,
Microsoft recommends that you wait for the next Service Pack that contains this
fix. Contact Microsoft Technical Support for more information.
