and the installed options. Record the current settings
before making any changes. (See “The
Configuration/Setup Utility program” on page 20 for
instructions.)
2. Determine which adapter or device is causing the
conflict. (See “Symptom-to-FRU index” on page 166
for instructions.)
3. Change adapter jumpers or switches. Some devices
use jumpers and switches to define the system
resources that the devices need. If the settings are
incorrect or set to use a resource that cannot be
shared, a conflict occurs and the device will remain
deactivated by the configuration program.
4. Change system jumpers or switches. See “Jumper
settings” on page 125.
5. Remove the device or adapter. Some configurations
are not supported. If you must remove an adapter,
see “Adapters” on page 43.
Resolving software configuration conflicts:
The memory-address space and IRQs used by some
hardware options might conflict with addresses defined for
use through application programs or the expanded memory
specification (EMS). (EMS is used only with DOS.)
If a conflict exists, one or more of the following conditions
might exist:
Ÿ
The system cannot load the operating system.
Ÿ
The system does not work.
Ÿ
An application program does not operate, or it returns
an error.
Ÿ
Screen messages indicate a conflict exists.
To resolve conflicts, you can change the software or
hardware configuration.
Note
Start the Configuration/Setup Utility program to view
the addresses used by the server functions. (See
“The Configuration/Setup Utility program” on page 20
for instructions.)
The best way to resolve memory-address conflicts is to
change the addresses used by the application program or
the device driver. You can use the Configuration/Setup
Utility program to change addresses.
If a device driver is causing a memory-address conflict,
refer to the operating-system documentation or the
documentation that comes with the device drivers.
