 APPENDIX  D 

Troubleshooting SBC Express 

 

Please refer to this list if you are having problems using SBC Express or if you receive an error 
message.  If after troubleshooting, you are still having problems, then you should contact your 
Internet Service Provider 'help desk' for further information.   

 

Step Problem 

Solution 

Minimum 
Resources 

SBC Express verifies minimum requirements on 
several resources including hard drive space, RAM, 
operating system level, and processor speed and 
family. 

 

 

If any of these resources are under the required value, 
an error will display describing which resource did not 
meet the requirement.

 

 Update your computer to the recommended 

resource level. 

 

Installing 
Network 
Interface Card

 

When installing Network Interface Cards the 
installation process may ask for the original installation 
disk.

 

You may have to provide an installation CD-
ROM for the installation of the drivers to be 
successful.

 

Incompatible 
Adapter

 

This scenario can occur when a machine had a 

previous NIC or Network Adapter installed, but the 
physical device is missing or was misconfigured. 

 

Use the “Fix” button to launch the appropriate 

system control panel along with context sensitive 
help. The help provided will guide you through 
the steps to disable or remove the adapter. 

 

Missing Internet 
Protocol

 

This scenario can occur if Client for Microsoft 
Networks is not installed with the TCP/IP protocol or 
if the NIC is installed without binding TCP/IP to the 
NIC.

 

Use the “Fix” button to launch the appropriate 
control panel and context sensitive help to guide 
you in binding TCP/IP to the network adapter.

 

Disabled 
Network Adapter

 

This scenario can occur when a NIC is present in the 
system, yet the adapter has been disabled. 

 

Use the “Fix” button with context sensitive help 
to guide you through enabling the adapter.
