NDIS 4.0 (Windows NT) driver messages
This section contains the error messages for the NDIS 4.0 drivers. The explanation and
recommended action are included with each message.
PCNTND-21 The adapter failed the checksum test.
Explanation: The driver cannot find an Ethernet controller. Action: Verify
that the Ethernet controller is enabled. If the Ethernet controller is enabled, go to
“Starting the diagnostic programs” on page 14 to run the diagnostic programs.
PCNTND-23 WARNING: PCNET IRQ found = xx
Explanation: The interrupt request (IRQ) setting ( xx ) in the PROTOCOL.INI file does
not match the hardware IRQ setting. Action: Remove the IRQ setting from the
PROTOCOL.INI file or change the IRQ setting in the PROTOCOL.INI file to match the
IRQ setting shown in the
PCI Slot/Device Information selection of the Advanced
Setup menu in the Configuration/Setup Utility program.
PCNTND-24 WARNING: PCNET IRQ does not match PROTOCOL.INI.
Explanation: The interrupt request (IRQ) setting in the PROTOCOL.INI file does not
match the hardware IRQ setting. Action: Remove the IRQ setting from the
PROTOCOL.INI file or change the IRQ setting in the PROTOCOL.INI file to match the
IRQ setting shown in the
PCI Slot/Device Information selection of the Advanced
Setup menu in the Configuration/Setup Utility program.
PCNTND-25 PCI scan specified, PCI bus not found!
Explanation: The driver cannot locate the PCI bus. Action: Run
the diagnostic programs.
PCNTND-29 WARNING: DMA number is not necessary for PCI device.
Explanation: The Ethernet controller does not require a DMA setting. Action:
Remove the DMA setting in the PROTOCOL.INI file.
PCNTND-33 PCNET device with specified IOBASE is already in use.
Explanation: The specified I/O address number is already in use by another Ethernet
controller or device. Action: Remove the I/O address setting in the
PROTOCOL.INI file.
Table 4. NDIS (Windows NT) driver messages for the Ethernet controller.
PermaNet ™ Server: No Secondary Adapter Found. Grouping Mode is disabled.
Explanation: The failover option requires an adapter that is compatible with the device
driver of the Ethernet controller on the system board. No such adapter was found. Action:
Make sure the correct adapter is installed.
PermaNet Server: Problem Occurs on the Primary Adapter. Switching over to the Secondary Adapter.
Explanation: The system detected a problem with the primary Ethernet connection and has
transferred all network traffic to the secondary Ethernet controller. Action:
Identify the cause of the failure on the primary Ethernet connection. Restoring the
operational state of the primary connection will cause the network traffic to automatically
transfer to the primary Ethernet controller.
