(OS/2) driver messages
This section provides explanations of the error messages for the NDIS 2.01 (OS/2)
drivers, and suggested actions to resolve each problem.
PCNTNW-NW-126 The group bit in the node address override was cleared.
Explanation: The IEEE address has a group bit that indicates that an address
belongs to a group of stations. This bit is used only as a destination address; it cannot
be used as a source address. You tried to enter a source address with this bit set. The
driver cleared the group bit of the source address.
Action:
None necessary, message is for information only.
PCNTNW-NW-127 The local bit in the node address override was set.
Explanation: The local bit in the IEEE address format indicates that the addresses
are being managed locally. If you use the node address override capabilities of this
driver to enter a new address, the local bit must be set. You entered an address
without the local bit set. The driver has set the local bit.
Action:
None necessary, message is for information only.
PCNTNW-NW-164 The device was not found.
Explanation:
The driver cannot find an Ethernet controller in the server.
Action: Verify that the Ethernet controller is enabled. If the Ethernet controller is
enabled, go to “Starting the diagnostic programs” on page 124 to run the diagnostic
programs.
PCNTNW-NW-165 The device was not found at IOADDRESS.
Explanation:
The Ethernet controller cannot be found at the I/O address specified.
Action: The Ethernet controller does not require a parameter for the I/O address.
Remove the I/O address parameter.
PCNTNW-NW-167 PCI scan specified, device not found.
Explanation: The driver cannot locate the Ethernet controller on the PCI bus.
Action:
Verify that the Ethernet controller is enabled. If the problem persists, go to
“Starting the diagnostic programs” on page 124 to run the diagnostic programs.
PCNTNW-NW-180 The DMA parameter is not necessary for PCI device.
Explanation: The Ethernet controller does not require a DMA setting.
Action: None necessary, message is for information only.
PCNTND-1 Unable to open the Protocol Manager .
Explanation: The NDIS stack is not configured correctly.
Action: Check and correct your configuration.
PCNTND-6 Out of memory while allocating buffers.
Explanation: The driver could not allocate the requested buffers.
Action: Check your system configuration. Edit the PROTOCOL.INI file to reduce
the number of Txbuffers and Rxbuffers specified for the driver.
