Computer does
not boot up or
host adapter not
found Your PCI bus automatically configures the hardware
resources used by the adapter. Therefore, a resource
conflict (address or IRQ) is probably not the problem.
To solve the problem:
1. Check to see whether the adapter is properly seated in
the PCI slot.
2. Try a different PCI slot.
3. Contact Interphase Technical Service.

SynWatch panel 1. Check whether the adapter and associated drivers are
installed correctly. (See
Quick Reference of Common
Tasks on page 181 .)
2. Start the WAN Adapters Setup utility, and check that
the appropriate network layer is present in the adapter
firmware. (From the
Start menu, select Programs ,
then Interphase WAN Adapters , and then WAN
Setup .)
