u
Make sure the PCI slot is configured to support INTA.
u
Be sure that INTA for the slot is assigned to a free interrupt
(IRQ) number.
u
Check the BIOS setup program’s PCI parameters for the slot
where the EtherPower II 10/100 network card is installed. Be
sure the slot is configured for level-triggered interrupts instead
of edge-triggered interrupts. An example of typical PCI
parameters follows:
PCI Slot #: (slot number where the network
card is installed)
Master: Enabled
Slave: Enabled
Latency Timer: 40 (range is 20 to 255)
Interrupt Type: Level-Triggered
Interrupt Number: (choose any number the BIOS
Setup supplies that does not
conflict with another
installed card)
Note that the wording of these parameters varies with different
computers, and not all parameters may be configurable.
Always consult your computer manual for information on changing
motherboard jumper settings and BIOS Setup program parameters
for use with PCI network cards. If you set a motherboard jumper
and modify the computer’s BIOS Setup, make sure the jumper and
BIOS settings match.
