DOCUMENT:Q107995 24-SEP-1999 [win3x] TITLE :NDIS2 Drivers Load but NDIS3 Drivers Don't--Errors 6200 & 58 PRODUCT :Microsoft Windows 3.x Retail Product PROD/VER:WINDOWS:3.11 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS: ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Windows for Workgroups version 3.11 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== When you start Windows for Workgroups, you may receive one of the following error messages: Error 6200: Adapter not found -or- Error 58: The network has responded incorrectly NOTE: These errors usually occur in protected mode; real-mode networking usually loads correctly. CAUSE ===== The above error messages may be caused by an incorrect I/O base address, an incorrect RAM address, or an improper IRQ setting in the PROTOCOL.INI file. These errors may be generated if the Transport= line in the [386Enh] section of the SYSTEM.INI contains protocols that are not in use. For example, if the Transport= line contains the following Transport=netbeui.386,nwlink.386,nwnblink.386 but the only protocol in use is NetBeui, the errors may occur. RESOLUTION ========== Correct the invalid setting. If the Transport= line contains invalid references, remove them (that is, remove the references to nwlink.386, nwnblink.386, and IPX/SPX compatible transport). MORE INFORMATION ================ The NDIS2 network interface card (NIC) driver may not rely on the PROTOCOL.INI settings; however, the NDIS3 NIC driver relies almost exclusively on these settings.
