SYMPTOMS
When you run hardware detection in Windows 95 on a computer that is
configured for a LANtastic network, your computer locks up.
CAUSE
Windows 95 cannot perform safe detection on a computer with LANtastic
drivers running. Unsafe detection on network cards can make a computer lock
up.
RESOLUTION
Run Windows 95 Setup again and select the Safe Recovery option. After Setup
is finished, make sure the IRQ for the network card is detected correctly
by starting Device Manager and checking the properties of the network card
on the Resources tab. If the IRQ is not correct, you need to select the
correct IRQ manually.
MORE INFORMATION
The LANtastic network is manufactured by Artisoft, Inc., a vendor
independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise,
regarding this product's performance or reliability.
