Network Adapter at I/O 320 Not Detected on Acer Computers

 * }

Q128888

-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Windows 95

-

SYMPTOMS
When you are installing Windows 95, if the network adapter detection routine determines that the PC is an Acer, the detection of network adapters at I/O address 320h is bypassed.

CAUSE
Setup does not check the range 320-32f on any computer with an Acer BIOS due to restrictions for network adapter detection in the DETLOG.TXT file.

WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, change the network adapter to use a different I/O address, or manually configure the network components in Windows 95 using a custom Setup or maintenance-mode Setup.

STATUS
Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
