Table 14: Troubleshooting Problems
Symptom Possible Cause Possible Solution
Board does not
respond. The board is
incorrectly aligned in
a PCI expansion slot. Check that the slot in which your DT3120
board is located is a PCI slot and that the
board is correctly seated in the slot; see
the instructions in the DT3120 Getting
Started Manual.
The interrupt level is
unacceptable. An interrupt conflict exists in your system.
If you think you may have an interrupt
conflict between a PCI device and a
device that is plugged into the ISA bus,
change the interrupt setting (usually by
changing a jumper) on the ISA device.
If you think you may have an interrupt
conflict on a PCI device that was not
designed to share interrupts, select a
different interrupt for each PCI slot in the
PCI BIOS. To do this, enter the system
BIOS program; this is usually done by
pressing the DEL key when rebooting your
system. Once in the system BIOS, enter
the PCI/PnP BIOS setup, and select a
unique interrupt for each PCI slot. The PCI
BIOS assigns the interrupt; the device on
the PCI bus does not have control over the
interrupt assignment.
Some network devices do not share
interrupts. If you still have an interrupt
conflict, remove the network device, install
the DT3120 board, and reboot the system.
Then reinsert the network device.
Board does not
