                    COMMON DRIVER ERROR MESSAGES
                FOR THE DESKDIRECT LAN ADAPTER (J2973A)
 
 The HP DeskDirect LAN Adapter drivers can produce these error 
 messages when loading the driver.  Except where noted, if one of these 
 error messages is produced, the driver will not load successfully.
 
 Other error messages can be produced by the driver due to extraordinary
 conditions within the system.  If the error message produced is not here,
 read the installation instructions for the driver for additional error
 message explanations.  Consult an HP authorized dealer for more
 assistance when any messages not documented here appear.
 
 Error messages also are produced from the networking or operating system
 software.  Please read those products' documentation for any explanation
 of their messages.
 
 COMMON ERROR MESSAGES:
 
 Adapter not responding at specified location.  Run HPVGSET diagnostic.
     This message will be produced when the driver cannot identify the
     adapter at the configured base I/O address.  This message
     can be safely ignored if the adapter is not installed.  This message
     can indicate that the location for the adapter does not match the
     information given to the driver.  Running the HPVGSET diagnostic on the
     HP Support Disk is a good way to check the adapter's configuration.
     If HPVGSET cannot locate the adapter, re-install the adapter making
     sure it is fully seated in the slot.
 
 Adapter not found during scan.  Run HPVGSET diagnostic.
     This message is produced when the driver is not given the adapter 
     location (ie. base I/O address or slot) and has searched the
     system without finding an adapter.  This message can be safely ignored
     if the adapter is not installed.  If an adapter is installed, run the
     HPVGSET diagnostic on the HP Support Disk to see if it can locate
     the adapter.  If HPVGSET cannot locate the adapter, re-install the
     adapter making sure it is fully seated in the slot.
 
 Multiple adapters found.  Specify PORT or SLOT for each.
     This message is produced when a driver has found multiple adapters
     but the location (ie. SLOT) was not specified for each
     adapter.  The driver must be given the location of each adapter when
     more than one adapter is installed in the PC.  See the driver 
     installation instructions for how to specify the location of each
     adapter to the driver.
 
 Adapter unable to detect LAN.  Verify cabling or run HPVGSET.
     Either that no LAN cable is attached or a network error occurred.
     Verify the LAN cabling is attached.  Run the link test diagnostics 
     provided by the program HPVGSET on the HP Support Disk.

 Adapter stored configuration corrupted.  Run HPVGSET diagnostic.
 Unable to load the EEPROM.  Run HPVGSET diagnostic.
     The configuration stored in non-volitile memory on the adapter is
     checksummed to verify correctness.  The driver will produce either
     message whenever the checksum fails.  Run HPVGSET on the HP Support
     Disk and use "Card test" to verify and test the adapter's configuration.
 
 Caching enabled in memory mapped region.
     When the adapter is configured for memory-mapped data transfers, the
     driver tests the memory region used by the adapter to see if the there
     is another device or external memory cache that will interfere with
     memory mapped transfers.  In DOS, this can indicate that the expanded
     memory manager has not been configured to exclude the memory mapped
     region.  See the file \TECHNOTE\MEMMAP.TXT on the HP Support Disk for
     more information on DOS expanded memory managers.  If the adapter is
     installed in an EISA system, ensure the adapter's memory map address
     range is configured in the system's EISA configuration utility.  Some
     drivers will continue to operate using I/O-mapped transfers instead.
     Unload the network driver, if needed, and run the HPVGSET diagnostic
     on the HP Support Disk.  
 
 Illegal base I/O address.
     The driver was given a base I/O address that is not valid for the
     adapter.  
 
 Illegal slot number.
     The driver was given a slot number not in the range of 1 to 15.
     Make sure that the slot number supplied matches the location of the
     adapter.
 
 Illegal interrupt channel.
     The driver was given an interrupt channel (IRQ) overide that is
     not supported by the adapter.  The supported values are: 3, 4, 5, 7,
     9, 10, 11, 12, and 15.  Normally, the interrupt does not need to be
     specified as the driver can read the interrupt channel that HPVGSET
     stored on the adapter.
 
 Illegal real mode memory address.
     The driver was given an illegal address of the 8K region that the
     adapter has memory-mapped.  The legal values are A0000 (hex) through
     EE000 (hex) every 2000 (hex).  Note all of the above numbers are in
     hexidecimal.  Normally, this address does not need to be specified as
     the driver can read the memory address that is assigned to the
     adapter.
