PCI/PXI Installation Tips
PCI/PXI computers are designed to automatically configure add-in boards 
each time the computer starts. The PCI/PXI computer sets the I/O address 
and IRQ level for the peripheral boards when the computer starts. The 
network drivers cannot change these values. If you experience problems 
when the computer starts, you may have to follow additional steps.
On some computers, manual configuration is possible through the 
computer’s BIOS setup utility. Refer to the documentation that came with 
your computer. You may need to verify or change some BIOS settings.
The following common solutions may correct your problem:
Make sure you have installed the adapter in a bus master-enabled slot. 
On some computers, not all slots are bus master enabled by default. 
Check your BIOS settings. Enable PCI/PXI bus mastering, if your 
BIOS has such an option.
Reserve interrupts (IRQ) and/or memory addresses for ISA adapters. 
This prevents PCI/PXI boards from using the same settings ISA boards 
are using. Try changing some of the interrupts that are reserved for 
ISA, but not being used, to reserved for PCI/PXI.
Update your BIOS. Sometimes updating the BIOS will correct some 
configuration problems.
Configure the PCI/PXI slot for level-triggered interrupts instead of 
edge-triggered interrupts in BIOS.
Additional Troubleshooting Tools
The PCI/PXI Gigabit Ethernet Adapters CD-ROM contains an Intel utility 
for troubleshooting the gigabit Ethernet adapter.
To install the tool, complete the following steps:
1.
Navigate to the appropriate directory for your operating system on the 
PCI/PXI Gigabit Ethernet Adapters CD-ROM.
2.
Run the 
setup.exe
 program.
3.
Start the tool by double-clicking the Ethernet Adapter icon in the 
system tray.
