DOCUMENT:Q32845 18-DEC-2000 [win95x] TITLE :Switch Settings For Non-PS/2 Token-Ring Adapters PRODUCT :Microsoft Windows 95.x Retail Product PROD/VER:WINDOWS:1.x,3.0,3.0a,3.1,3.11 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS: ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Windows versions 1.1, 3.0, 3.0a, 3.1, 3.11 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY ======= This article discusses switch settings for the IBM Token-Ring Network PC Adapter. The following are switch-configurable parameters for the Token Ring adapter and conflicts that may occur: 1. The Interrupt Line address may conflict with devices such as the Microsoft Bus Mouse, hard drive controllers, serial and parallel ports. 2. The Base I/O address may conflict with expanded memory boards. 3. The Memory Map Address may conflict with the memory addresses used by expanded memory board drivers, 3270 cards, ESDI hard-drive controllers, and display adapters. It may be necessary to change switch settings on the Token Ring Adapter and/or other cards in the system to avoid such conflicts.
