CHAPTER 1
Hardware Installation
Introduction
The PRO/100 PC Card is the ideal high-speed, multifunction solution for
portable PC users. It supports 10 and 100Mbps Ethernet networks and
modem speeds up to 56Kbps for high-performance connectivity in any
environment. The PRO/100 PC Card plugs into your computers Type II
PC Card slot for simultaneous connection to an Ethernet LAN and the
telephone network.
56K Technology
The PRO/100 PC Card uses K56flex* modem technology to reach speeds
up to 56Kbps. K56flex Technology enables notebook users to access
information and E-mail on corporate networks, the Internet and other
online services at speeds up to 56Kbps over standard phone lines.
These higher speeds are achieved by avoiding conversion from digital to
analog lines in the connection between the user and service provider.
Ordinary connections begin over an analog line, are converted to digital
by the phone company and are converted back to analog in the final
segment before arriving at the service provider. In order to achieve 56K
connections, there can only be one digital to analog conversion. This
requires the service provider to have a direct digital connection and
therefore, avoids one conversion of the signal. By avoiding this conver-
sion, data download speeds up to 56K are possible. Data sent upstream by
the user travels at the standard V.34 rate. Also, the modems at both ends
of the call must be compatible to achieve speeds up to 56K. If the
modems at both ends of the call are not compatible, they will negotiate a
standard V.34 connection.
1-2 PRO/100 LAN+Modem PC Card User’s Guide
With K56flex technology, current country-specific regulations may limit
download speeds. Additional factors such as phone line conditions, can
affect the performance of the PRO/100 PC Card. You can find more
detailed technical information on K56flex performance on Intel's support
web site, support.intel.com.
Model
MBLA1656 Combination card that provides access to
10Base-T and 100Base-TX networks and
modem speeds up to 56Kbps. An Ethernet
Adapter Cable (RJ-45) and Modem Cable
(RJ-11) are supplied. It provides access to
both 10Mbps and 100Mbps networks with a
single Ethernet Adapter Cable, and auto-
senses 10Mbps or 100Mbps network speed.
Requires Category 5 (data grade)
unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cabling
for 100Mbps network connections.
Software Supplied
Intel drivers and other software are supplied on 3.5-inch 1.44 megabyte
disks. All popular network operating systems, including NetWare, Win-
dows 95, Windows NT, Windows 3.x, and Windows for Workgroups are
supported.
An easy-to-use Installation Program for Windows 3.x is provided on the
Intel Installation Disk, which includes the country identifier utility for local
modem settings.
Additional Features
The PRO/100 PC Card is a Type II PC Card conforming to the Personal
Computer Memory Card International Association (PCMCIA) PC Card
Standard. It supports HotSwap, suspend/resume power management, full-
duplex transmission at 10Mbps, and Advanced Look-Ahead Pipelining.
Hardware Installation 1-3
HotSwap
This card supports HotSwap on a PC Card computer that is running
Microsoft Windows 95 or Windows 3.x/MS-DOS using Card and Socket
Services. This feature allows the PRO/100 PC Card to be removed from
the computer, temporarily replaced with another type of PC card, then
reinserted without loss of the local area network connection.
Power Management Suspend/Resume
Power management features such as suspend/resume are supported by the
PRO/100 PC Card on PCMCIA systems running Windows 95 or Win-
dows NT, or Windows 3.x/MS-DOS using Card and Socket Services. This
means that when the computer enters a reduced power or power saving
mode, an ongoing local area network connection will remain active for the
period of time allowed by the network operating system
Hardware Installation
Note
Hardware installation requirements may vary with different
operating systems. For example, if your system is configured for
automatic detection of the card (for example, under Windows
95), the computer should be ON and standard operating
software loaded when the card is inserted. For installation
instructions specific to your particular environment, see the
appropriate chapter: Chapter 2. Installation with Windows 95,
Chapter 3. Installation with Windows NT, and Chapter 4.

Windows NT Driver Parameters Reference
M16B.SYS (NDIS 3) Settings for Microsoft Windows NT
M16B.SYS is an NDIS 3 network interface card (NIC) driver. It conforms
to the Microsoft Network Driver Interface Specification (NDIS). It
supports both Windows NT and Windows 95.
Caution
Under most circumstances it will not be necessary to make
modifications directly to the registry. Incorrect settings can
result in undesirable changes to the configuration of Windows
95 or NT. The M16B.SYS driver supports the networking
environment in Microsoft Windows NT versions 3.51 and
greater.
The files necessary for using M16B.SYS include:
For Windows NT 4.0
M16B.DLL Intel PRO/100 installation DLL
OEMSETNT.INF Intel installation file for Windows NT
MDMM16B.INF Modem support file for Windows NT 4.0

(M16BODI.COM, M16BNDIS.EXE, or M16BPD.COM) or a
modem-only driver (IMENABLE.COM) be loaded before the
modem can be used.
For more detailed modem information, see Chapter 6. Modem Reference
in this Users Guide.
4-32 PRO/100 LAN+Modem PC Card User’s Guide
Using Network or Modem Communications under Windows 3.x
All Intel Windows 3.x network drivers initialize both the LAN and the
modem. When a network driver is loaded, the modem driver is automati-
cally initialized.
Using Modem Communications Only under Windows
3.x
If you want to use the modem under Windows 3.x without loading a
network driver, and you are NOT using Card and Socket Services, reboot
the computer and run the utility IMENABLE.COM (found in the root
directory of Intel Disk 2, Network Drivers Disk) from the DOS prompt
before launching Windows or your communications program:
IMENABLE
Installing Communications and Fax Software
The PRO/100 PC Card is compatible with most popular communications
and fax software packages (see Chapter 5. Utilities and Applications for
application-specific information).
Running Windows Communications and Fax Software
Windows 3.x-based fax and communications programs can be started
immediately once the modem has been initialized.
Running DOS Communications and Fax Software
DOS-based communications software should be run from a DOS prompt
without Windows loaded. DOS software can also be run in a DOS box
with Windows loaded.
Windows 3.x/MS-DOS Installation 4-33
COM Por ts, IRQs, and I/O Base Addresses
Automatic COM Port Detection
The PRO/100 PC Card drivers will automatically configure a COM port
on the system. The driver scans the BIOS table for the first unused COM
port, then checks to see if the corresponding IRQ is in use. If it is, it
moves to the next available COM port.
This process takes precedence over the network resources. If you specify a
network IRQ that is the same as the first available COM IRQ (3 or 4), the
driver will respond with an error.
To force a COM port, use the COMx keyword described in the following
heading. If you do not want a COM port, add the NOCOM keyword to
your configuration file or command line.
Manually Setting COM Port, Interrupt, and I/O Address Values
Use the COMx keyword to manually specify which COM port the PRO/
100 PC Card should use when providing erial port emulation for modem
operations. Values for x can be 1, 2, 3, or 4. Each of these settings also
activates a specific set of predefined values for I/O address and interrupt
level, as follows:
PORT IRQ IOADDRESS
COM1 4 03F8
COM2 3 02F8
COM3 4 03E8
COM4 3 02E8
Do not select a COM port that is currently used by any other system
device, such as the PC Card interface itself, or a mouse or trackball.
Note
Configure your communications software to the COM port you
selected with the COMx keyword.
By default the LAN drivers will select the first open COM port. You can
add the COMx keyword and a port number to the LAN driver configura-
4-34 PRO/100 LAN+Modem PC Card User’s Guide
tion to activate serial port emulation. The COMx keyword can also be
stated on the command line with the modem-only driver
IMENABLE.COM.
Use the keywords COMIRQ and COMBASE to override the values set
with COM1, COM2, COM3, or COM4 in case of a conflict between LAN
and modem settings.

Sample IMENABLE.COM Command Line
IMENABLE COM3 MEM=D8000
Windows 3.x/MS-DOS Installation 4-35
Changing Interrupt or I/O Address Settings
The COMIRQ keyword is used to override the predefined interrupt value
for a specific COM port in case of a conflict between LAN and modem
settings. It can also be used with COMBASE to select a user-defined
COM port. Default is keyword not used. Setting is a decimal value which
must be different from the value used with the INTERRUPT keyword.
The COMBASE keyword can be used to override the predefined I/O
port value for a specific COM port in case of a conflict between LAN and
modem settings. It can also be used with COMIRQ to select a user-
defined COM port. The default condition is keyword not used.
Parameter setting is a hexadecimal value in the range 248 to 3F8 which
must be different from the value used with the IOADDRESS or PORT
keyword. Serial emulation mode requires 8 addresses.
The SHAREIRQ keyword is only valid when no Card Services are being
used. It instructs the driver that the modem and LAN interfaces must
share the IRQ line. State this keyword to configure the interface for one
physical IRQ and one logical IRQ, instead of the two separate physical
IRQs normally used by the PC Card controller.
Preventing Memory Conflicts
Memory allocation conflicts can cause the Intel driver to fail to load. The
PRO/100 PC Card requires an 8K memory block located between C000
and EFFF, with a default starting address of D2000.
Some computers require that a different address be used. To change the
memory address at which the Intel driver loads, use the MEMORY or
MEM keyword in the driver configuration file or on the driver command
line.
Memory Manager Exclusions
When using a memory manager such as EMM386, the memory manager
will try to control the upper memory blocks where the Intel driver
normally loads. To prevent conflicts, add a statement to the EMM386
command line excluding an 8K memory block between C000 and EFFF
for the Intel driver. For example,
DEVICE=C:\PATH\EMM386.EXE NOEMS X=CC00-CDFF
4-36 PRO/100 LAN+Modem PC Card User’s Guide
Here are some examples of MEMORY keyword settings and the corre-
sponding 8K exclusion:
Configuration Keyword Setting Exclusion
NET.CFG MEM CC000 X=CC00-CDFF
PROTOCOL.INI MEMORY=D4000 X=D400-D5FF
Command Line MEMORY=C8000 X=C800-C9FF
Notes
Memory settings used to configure the PRO/100 PC Card
always use 5 digits. Memory settings on the EMM386 command
line only require 4 digits.
With Card and Socket Services, the memory exclusion is
generally much larger than that required without them. This
exclusion range should not be reduced.
Windows and EMM386
If you are using EMM386 and Windows, you should add an
EMMEXCLUDE= line to the [386enh] section of the SYSTEM.INI file.
The exclusion range should match the exclusion on the EMM386 line.
If you are not using EMM386, but are using Windows, then you MUST
add an EMMEXCLUDE= statement to the [386enh] section of the
SYSTEM.INI file. The exclusion range must match the memory window
the PRO/100 PC Card is using.
Windows 3.x Modem Driver Settings
The modem utility IMENABLE.COM searches for an available COM
port or one specified by the user and configures the Intel adapter hard-
ware accordingly.
Modem Driver Configuration Notes
If you want to use the modem without loading a network driver, and you
are not using Card and Socket Services or the equivalent under Microsoft
Windows 95 or NT, you have to load the modem driver
IMENABLE.COM, supplied on Disk 2. Network Drivers Disk. (If you
load a network driver such as M16BNDIS, M16BODI, or M16BPD, you
Windows 3.x/MS-DOS Installation 4-37
do not need IMENABLE.COM because the network drivers also initialize
the modem.)
Reboot the computer and run IMENABLE.COM from the DOS prompt
before launching Windows or a communications program.

? displays a summary of command line options.
COMx specifies which COM port the PRO/100 PC Card
should use when providing serial port emulation
for modem operations. Values for x can be 1, 2, 3,
or 4. Each of these values instructs the driver to
use pre-defined values for I/O address and
interrupt level, and to enable the specified I/O
address in the COM port BIOS table. The modem
driver IMENABLE.COM defaults to COM3. Use
the keywords COMIRQ and COMBASE to
override the values set with COM1, COM2,
COM3, or COM4 in case of a conflict between
LAN and modem settings.
COMBASE can be used to override the pre-defined I/O port
value for a specific COM port in case of a conflict
between LAN and modem settings. It can also be
used with COMIRQ to select a user-defined COM
port. Default is no keyword. Parameter setting is a
hexadecimal value in the range 248 to 3F8 which
must be different from the value used with the
IOADDRESS or PORT keyword. Serial emulation
mode requires 8 addresses.
COMIRQ is used to override the pre-defined interrupt value
for a specific COM port in case of a conflict
between LAN and modem settings. It can also be
used with COMBASE to select a user-defined
COM port. Default is no keyword. Parameter
setting is a decimal value which must be different
from the value used with the INTERRUPT
keyword.

FRAME (ODI) designates support for multiple Ethernet
frame types. One or more types can be used. Refer
to your NetWare documentation for more
information. The Intel ODI drivers default frame
type is 802.2, but the NET.CFG file supplied with
the ODI driver on Disk 2, Network Drivers Disk
sets both 802.2 and 802.3. Therefore if your
networks frame type is 802.3, you must use Intels
NET.CFG with the ODI driver.
INTERRUPT specifies a LAN interrupt to use. It requires a
decimal value designating the PRO/100 PC Card
port hardware interrupt (for example, INT 5 or
INT 7). Default (if parameter not specified) is 5.
Any value supported by the PC Card hardware can
be used.
INTERRUPTNUMBERSee INTERRUPT.
IOADDRESS specifies the LAN I/O address to use, in hexadeci-
mal notation. Default address is 320.
IOBASEADDRESS see IOADDRESS.
IOWAITSTATES specifies the number of wait states that should be
added to I/O accesses to the card. Values are a
decimal number from 1 to 3. On some machines it
may be necessary for the driver to run with I/O
waitstates. By default, the driver will attempt to
automatically configure this parameter. The
keyword is provided as a troubleshooting aid.
LINKINTEGRITY ON or OFF. See LINKDISABLE.
LINKDISABLE disables the link integrity check on the network
twisted pair cabling (for operation with non-IEEE
10BASE-T networks such as StarLAN 10).
Without the LINKDISABLE keyword in the
driver command line, the driver defaults to link
integrity ENABLED.
Windows 3.x/MS-DOS Installation 4-45
MEMORY specifies the memory location to use. It is specified
in hexadecimal notation and is not a segment
value. Specify the full address for all drivers. For
example, D2000, not D200. The PRO/100 PC
Card uses 4 Kbytes of memory (1000 hexadecimal)
for the LAN. Use the MODE IO setting to disable
MEMORY MODE. Default is D2000. Possible
values are C0000 through E0000.
MEMORYBASEADDRESS
see MEMORY.
MEMWAITSTATESspecifies the number of wait states that should be
added to memory accesses to the card. Values are
decimal 1 to 3. On extremely fast machines it may
be necessary for the driver to run with waitstates.
By default, the driver will attempt to automatically
configure this parameter. The keyword is provided
as a troubleshooting aid.
MODE specifies whether to run the network in memory-
mapped or I/O mode. Values are the ASCII
strings MEMORY or IO. The default setting is
MEM. Set this keyword to IO to disable requests
for memory-mapped mode on systems that only
support an I/O driven card.
NOCHECK disables verification of adapter resources. This
keyword is intended to be used as a troubleshoot-
ing tool.
NOCOM the PRO/100 PC Card driver will configure a
COM port by default. The NOCOM keyword can
be used to defeat this feature. If the keyword is not
used, the modem is enabled. LAN operations are
not affected.
NOEARLYRX disables Advanced Look-ahead Pipelining features
of the PRO/100 PC Card. You may need this
keyword for NDIS version 2.01 drivers which do
not fully support the early RX feature.
4-46 PRO/100 LAN+Modem PC Card User’s Guide
NOEARLYTX disables early transmit features of the PRO/100
PC Card. Try using this keyword if you are
experiencing a large number of transmit overruns.
NOLEDS turns off network LED indicators on LAN adapter
cables to conserve battery power.
PORT (ODI) specifies the LAN I/O address to use, in
hexadecimal notation. Default address is 320.
SHAREIRQ is optional when no Card Services are being used.
It instructs the driver that the modem and LAN
interfaces must share the IRQ line. State this
keyword to configure the interface for one physical
IRQ and one logical IRQ, instead of the two
separate physical IRQs normally used by the PC
Card controller.
SINT (Packet Driver) is number from hexadecimal 60 to
80 designating a software interrupt. Default is 60.
SLOT Same as SOCKET but used with
IMENABLE.COM.
SOCKET forces the driver to look in the selected socket
specifically for a PRO/100 PC Card. If no
keyword is stated, the driver will scan all PC Card
slots looking for the right card. Valid values are
from 1 to the number of PC Card slots supported
by the computer being used. This keyword may be
useful if you have a memory card or other PC Card
device in socket 1 and a PRO/100 PC Card in
socket 2. Then set the keyword to SOCKET=2 in
your configuration file or on the command line.
WORDSIZE this parameter specifies the size of the data path
for the LAN controller. Values are 8 or 16 decimal.
Default is 16. Since the modem always uses an 8-
bit data path, this keyword does not affect the
modem.

A. If the memory manager EMM386.EXE is being used, verify that the
memory required for the PRO/100 PC Card has been excluded from use
by the memory manager in the CONFIG.SYS. The memory exclusion
required when using Card and Socket Services is generally larger than the
exclusion needed by the
PRO/100 PC Card alone. The safest setting when troubleshooting is to
remark out the entire C and D memory ranges, as follows:
DEVICE=C:\PATH\EMM386.EXE NOEMS X=C000-DFFF
4-52 PRO/100 LAN+Modem PC Card User’s Guide
After the driver has been successfully loaded, the memory exclusion may
be reduced through trial and error or in accordance with the Card and
Socket Services documentation. The system must be rebooted before the
revised settings take effect.
B. When the PRO/100 PC Card driver is loaded it either reads a configu-
ration file or uses command line parameters to determine which resources
it should use. The following is a list of driver types, driver file names, and
the configuration method used by each:
Type File Name Configuration Method
ODI M16BODI.COM reads NET.CFG configuration file
NDIS2 M16BNDIS.EXE reads PROTOCOL.INI configuration file
Packet M16BPD.EXE uses COMMAND LINE parameters
Test M16BTEST.EXE uses COMMAND LINE parameters
C. Card and Socket Services will generally try to assign a set of resources
(interrupt, memory window, I/O window) to the PRO/100 PC Card. The
resources configured for the PRO/100 PC Card (in a configuration file or
on a command line) must match the resources assigned by Card and
Socket Services. If they do not, the driver will generally fail to load.
The way resources are assigned to the PC Card varies among Card and
Socket Services manufacturers. The following section provides guidelines
for the most popular Card and Socket Services. Review your Card and
Socket Services documentation. To use Card and Socket Services with the
PRO/100 PC Card, you must know what resources will be assigned by
Card and Socket Services, then specify the same resources when configur-
ing the PRO/100.
IBM
The following are the files generally loaded with IBM Card and Socket
Services.
DEVICE=C:\THINKPAD\IBMDSS01.SYS /S0=2 DEVICE=C:\THINKPAD\IBMDOSCS.SYS DEVICE=C:\THINKPAD\DICRMU01.SYS /MA=C800-CFFF (/MA SHOULD
MATCH THE EMM386 EXCLUSION) DEVICE=C:\THINKPAD\AUTODRV.SYS C:\THINKPAD\AUTODRV.INI (CALLED
A “GENERIC” CARD DRIVER)
Windows 3.x/MS-DOS Installation 4-53
The AUTODRV.INI file is used to assign resources to the PRO/100 PC
Card. The AUTODRV.INI file should be edited to read as follows:
ETHERNET. CARDID=ETHER,CREDI ;OPTION=IGNORE (THE SEMICOLON IS REQUIRED) PORT1=320, IRQ=5, MEMORY1=C800, WAITSTATE=1
The same resources should be specified in the PRO/100 PC Card driver
initialization file.
Phoenix
The Phoenix Card and Socket Services super client driver PCMSCD.EXE
should NOT be configured with the PCM.EXE program to support the
PRO/100 PC Card. Use the default setup and the following sequence of
commands in your CONFIG.SYS file.
DEVICE=C:\PCMPLUS3\PCMSS.EXE DEVICE=C:\PCMPLUS3\PCMCS.EXE DEVICE=C:\PCMPLUS3\PCMRMAN.SYS DEVICE=C:\PMCPLUS3\PCMSCD.EXE (CALLED A “GENERIC” CARD DRIVER)
Be sure to verify that an EMM386 memory exclusion has been stated to
cover the region where the Intel card loads.
SystemSoft
The SystemSofts CardSoft Card and Socket Services are loaded in the
CONFIG.SYS file and generally include the following lines:
DEVICE=C:\CARDSOFT\SOCKET_SERVICES_DRIVER (THIS FILE VARIES BY MACHINE TYPE)
DEVICE=C:\CARDSOFT\CS.EXE DEVICE=C:\CARDSOFT\CSALLOC.EXE C:\CARDSOFT\CSALLOC.INI DEVICE=C:\CARDSOFT\CARDID.EXE (CALLED A “GENERIC” CARD DRIVER)
Resources assigned by CardSoft Card and Socket Services are controlled
by the files CSALLOC.INI and CARDID.INI. CSALLOC.INI contains a
list of resources available to Card and Socket Services. CARDID.INI
controls how resources will be assigned to specific types of cards. The
setting in the PRO/100 PC Card driver configuration file should match
4-54 PRO/100 LAN+Modem PC Card User’s Guide
the resources assigned by the LAN1xxxxxx keywords in the CARDID.INI
file. The LAN1MEMORYBASE2 entry can be ignored.
A driver failed to load, and I’m NOT using Card and Socket Services
A. Verify that a block of memory for use by the PRO/100 PC Card has
been excluded from any memory manager being loaded. Memory manag-
ers are generally loaded in the CONFIG.SYS. The following example is
given for EMM386.EXE and a PRO/100 PC Card loading at its default
memory address of D2000:
DEVICE=C:\PATH\EMM386.EXE NOEMS X=D200-D3FF
B. Verify that power management has been disabled and the PCMCIA
socket is powered/enabled in the computer systems CMOS setup. These
settings may not be present in all machines. Consult your computer
documentation for information on how to access and modify the system
setup.
C. Reboot the machine by turning off the power and turning it back on
again (cold boot). If the driver still fails to load, the cause is generally a
resource conflict. Common causes of resource conflicts include sound
systems, other PCMCIA adapters, and built in ROMs. The resources
required for a PRO/100 PC Card include a memory window (MEM
keyword), a LAN interrupt (INT keyword, and an I/O address
(IOADDRESS keyword). The default settings are indicated below.
Review your computer documentation to determine what resources are
available, or use a trial and error approach. The table below shows a
suggested trial and error sequence. If you use this method, be sure to add a
memory exclusion from C000-DFFF to the EMM386 line until a suitable
memory location has been found. Then the memory exclusion can be
reduced to an 8K window. Perform a cold boot between each trial to
ensure that the PRO/100 PC Card and PC Card sockets are completely
reset.
When the PRO/100 PC Card driver is loaded it either reads a configura-
tion file or uses command line parameters to determine which resources it
should use. The following is a list of driver types, driver file names, and
the configuration method used by each:
Windows 3.x/MS-DOS Installation 4-55
Type File Name Configuration Method
ODI M16BODI.COM reads NET.CFG configuration file
NDIS2 M16BNDIS.EXE reads PROTOCOL.INI configuration file
Packet M16BPD.EXE uses COMMAND LINE parameters
Test M16BTEST.EXE uses COMMAND LINE parameters
The default resources used by the PRO/100 PC Card when no other
setting is stated are:
MEMORY AUTO
IRQ AUTO
IOADDRESS (NDIS) AUTO
PORT (ODI) AUTO

If none of the above settings allows the driver to load, it may be necessary
to add an IOWAITSTATES=2 and MEMWAITSTATES=2 parameter to
the appropriate PRO/100 PC Card driver configuration file or command
line.
D. If the driver still fails to load after youve tried the combinations above,
your machine may require the use of Card and Socket Services. See the
preceding section.
E. Machine-specific notes:
IBM 755, 360, 355 - Set the keyword WORDSIZE=8 in your configura-
tion file or on the command line (WORDSIZE 8 for the ODI driver).
The driver loaded successfully, but I can’t get on the network
A. Check all connections and verify that the cable drop is good (try a cable
that is known to work on another workstation).
B. Reboot by powering down the machine (cold boot). On some ma-
chines the PC Card controller chipset is not properly reset on a warm
boot, and this can cause network errors.
C. In a NetWare environment, verify that the frame type running on your
network server is the same as the FRAME type listed first in the
NET.CFG. If you are not sure what the correct Ethernet frame type is,
check with your system administrator. On a multi-server network, add a
preferred server statement to the NET.CFG.
D. There could be an interrupt conflict. Try loading the driver with a
different interrupt specified in the PRO/100 PC Card configuration file.
(This may also require some re-configuration of Card and Socket Services,
if theyre being used.)
E. If the problem persists, and youre on a 10BASE-T network, try
patching directly into the hub. If the adapter works when plugged directly
into the hub, but not when attached via a longer cable run, verify that the
cable run length is within the IEEE 10BASE-T specification (100 meters).
If the cable length is correct, the adapter may be defective. Contact Intel
Customer Support.
Windows 3.x/MS-DOS Installation 4-57
The driver loaded, but my DOS modem software won’t work
The PRO/100 PC Card is configured to add a second interrupt and I/O
address window in order to emulate a standard serial port interface. Use
the COMx keyword in your driver configuration file or as a command line
parameter to enable serial port emulation. If no COMx keyword is used,
the Intel driver will configure the PRO/100 PC Card at the first available
COM port.
Pre-set default resources corresponding to the COM port value are used,
as follows:
PORT IRQ IOADDRESS
COM1 4 03F8
COM2 3 02F8
COM3 4 03E8
COM4 3 02E8
The default setting for the COM port address can be changed by the
COMBASE keyword. The default setting for the IRQ can be changed by
the COMIRQ keyword. A second keyword that affects interrupt usage is
SHAREIRQ. The SHAREIRQ keyword forces the modem side to share
the interrupt that the network side is using. The INT or INTERRUPT
keyword is used to set the interrupt the network side uses. Card and
Socket Services also has an effect on interrupt usage.
To troubleshoot the issues described above, proceed as follows:
1 Verify that the phone line is an analog phone line (the type used
with other modems and fax machines). Connecting the PRO/100
PC Card to a digital phone line will not damage the adapter, but is
not recommended.
2 Verify that the COMx keyword is present in the driver configuration
file or as a command line parameter as appropriate.
3 Observe the COM port number stated when the driver loads. It
should match the value of x assigned to the COMx keyword
(decimal values or 1, 2, 3, or 4) in the driver configuration file
(NET.CFG for M16BODI, PROTOCOL.INI for M16BNDIS) or
as a command line parameter for the packet driver (M16BPD) or
4-58 PRO/100 LAN+Modem PC Card User’s Guide
modem driver (IMENABLE). If they do not match, either there are
multiple COMx keywords listed in the file or there are multiple
configuration files.
4 Run Microsoft Diagnostics (MSD) and see if the COM port shows
up. On some machines MSD will not show what COM port was
configured for the PRO/100 PC Card. If it doesnt, try the
following command:
ECHO ATDTNNNNNNN > COMX:
where nnnnnnn is a telephone you can hear ring, and x is the COM
port number. If the phone rings, this indicates that the COM port is
correctly configured and that the modem is able to dial.
5 If the COM port does not show up after running MSD, try
changing the x the COMx keyword to a different port value (start
with COM4 and try each value in sequence through COM1). Power
down the computer between trials.
The modem works in DOS, but not in Windows
A. Verify that there are no communications/fax programs automatically
loading on Windows startup or running in the background.
B. If you are using Card and Socket Services, try the following:
1 In Windows, select Control Panel, Ports, and under Advanced, set
the selected COM port IOADDRESS to default, set the INTER-
RUPT LEVEL to the value specified by the INT or INTERRUPT
keyword in the LAN configuration file. You should also modify the
SYSTEM.INI file as follows: set COMxIRQ=y, where x is the
COM port the PRO/100 PC Card is configured as, and y is the
interrupt the LAN driver is using (as stated in the NET.CFG or
PROTOCOL.INI file).
2 If you are using the M16BODI driver and you receive a blue
warning screen stating that A hardware interrupt has occurred, try
adding the following section to the SYSTEM.INI file:
[VIPX] VIRTUALIZE IRQX = OFF
where x is the interrupt number (in hexadecimal notation) used by
the M16BODI driver.
Windows 3.x/MS-DOS Installation 4-59
3 Turn computer power off and then on again (cold boot).
4 Start the Windows Terminal program in the Accessories group.
Select a COM port under the setting/communications options, click
OK to get back to the terminal screen. Change to modem command
mode and type AT, then press enter. If the modem responds with
OK, the trial configuration was correct.
5 In some cases an interrupt conflict will not be apparent until a
Windows mouse driver is loaded. It will then be necessary to cold
boot the machine, load the PRO/100 PC Card driver and re-start at
step 1. above.
C. Try disabling Card and Socket Services if they are enabled (see Item 2
of these Symptoms and Solutions).
D. If you are NOT using Card and Socket Services, try the following:
1 Verify the following entries in the Windows SYSTEM.INI file:
BOOT. COMM.DRV=COMM.DRV 386ENH. DEVICE=*VCD
You may need to remark out any *VCD.386 added by other
programs (IBMVCD.386, PCMVCD.386, SSVCD.386).
2 In Windows, go into the Control Panel, then Ports, and under the
Advanced options, set the selected COM port IOADDRESS and
INTERRUPT to default settings.
3 Exit Windows and turn computer off and on again (cold boot).
4 Start the Windows Terminal program in the Accessories group.
Select a COM port under the setting/communications options, click
OK to get back to the terminal screen. Change to modem command
mode and type AT, then press enter. If the modem responds with
OK, the trial configuration was correct.
5 In some cases an interrupt conflict will not be apparent until a
Windows mouse driver is loaded. It will then be necessary to cold
boot the machine, load the PRO/100 PC Card driver and re-start at
step 1. above.

The PRO/100 PC Card does not have a built-in speaker. It relies on the
PC Card software to direct signals to the computers speaker. A few
computers do not properly direct the PRO/100 PC Card audio to the
system speaker. The modem will connect and operate normally, but no
sound will be heard. On some PCs you can set the speaker on or off or
change volume levels with a keyboard sequence. See your computer
documentation.
