CAUSE

This network adapter may require the real-mode enabler for the PCMCIA card services, or may require a different MAC driver to work properly.

RESOLUTION

•You may need to load the real-mode card and socket services drivers. Although the exact names of these drivers varies from one system to another, they typically appear as follows in the Config.sys file:
device=c:\<path>\cs.exe device=c:\<path>\sscirrus.exe device=c:\<path>\csalloc.exe
NOTE: You may be able to find references to the original real-mode drivers in the Config.dos file.

•These systems also typically require that the Novell ODI/NETX or VLM driver be installed for the network adapter. To change the driver type, follow these steps:

1.Click the Start button, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
2.Double-click the Network icon.
3.Click the Novell/Eagle NE200T PCMCIA network adapter, and then click Properties.
4.On the Driver Type tab, click the Real Mode (16-bit) ODI Driver option button, and then click OK.
5.Click OK. When you are prompted to do so, enter the location for the Novell files.

NOTE: The necessary files should be on a drivers disk included with the network adapter, or you can obtain them from Novell.
6.When you are prompted to restart the computer, do so.
