SYMPTOMS
A computer running Windows NT version 4.0 may fail during an unattended installation of the 3Com 3C619B Tokenlink adapter with the following error:

Badly formed setup script command

This problem is only encountered if you explicitly specify the 3C619B in an Unattend.txt file. Using the DetectAdapers = "" entry does not exhibit the problem.



CAUSE
This error is caused by an incorrect entry in the Oemsetup.inf file of the 3C619B network adapter.



RESOLUTION
The Oemsetup.inf file for the 3C619B is located in the I386\Drvlib.nic\Tlnk3 directory on your installation source.

To correct the problem, follow the instructions listed below:

NOTE: The Oemsetup.inf file is read only. Be sure to change the attributes of the file before editing.  Edit the Oemsetup.inf file located in the I386\Drvlib.nic\Tlnk3 directory.  Search for the string of STF_GUI_UNATTENDED. You should see the following entry:

ifstr(i) $(!STF_GUI_UNATTENDED) == "YES" NetworkAddress = "" goto WriteNetworkAddr endif  Place a semi-colon at the beginning of the NetworkAddress = "" line to comment it out. On the File menu, click Save the File, and then exit the program.
