The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Windows NT Server version 3.1
 * Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 3.1
 * Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server, version 3.1

SYMPTOMS
On a RISC-based computer with multiple NE3200 network adapters installed, your computer may stop responding (hang) as Windows NT starts network services. If your computer does not hang, you may not be able to get one or more network adapters to work.

CAUSE
The NE3200 driver and Windows NT incorrectly report that all adapters are in the same slot in the computer bus.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT and Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1. This problem was corrected in the latest U.S. Service Pack for Windows NT and Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1.
