Use /~# parameter when you run Pathworks SETUP. This will allow you to
see any error messages given by any driver that fails to load.
1 If you hang on error code 83%, the Intel NDIS driver failed to
load. Here are some possible reasons for the failure:
a Interrupt conflict - some machines use INT 5 for a sound card.
Change the ni_irq to 10 or 11.
b Some machines require you to change the default memory
setting. Try using CE00, C800, or D400. Make sure to make the
corresponding changes:
• in the mem parameter line in your PROTOCOL.INI,
• in the memory exclusion of the EMM386.EXE line in your
CONFIG.SYS.
Sample PROTOCOL.INI change:
MEM=0XD400
c Some machines require using the mode=io parameter. Add
mode=io to the Intel section in the PROTOCOL.INI file.
2 If you hang on error code 92%, the NDIS driver loaded properly
but the scheduler failed to load. This is usually because your
interrupt in the PROTOCOL.INI doesn’t match the ni_irq line.
Make sure you change the ni_irq line to match the INT you want
to use. This process is described under DEC PATHWORKS in
Chapter 2, Software Installation.
