SYMPTOM
After you upgrade from Windows NT version 3.50 to 3.51, your computer's
performance degrades significantly when you use Client Services for NetWare
(CSNW) or Gateway Services for NetWare (GSNW).
This symptom occurs if your computer has a Compaq Imbedded Netflex network
interface card (NIC).
CAUSE
The driver for your Netflex network card is from COMPAQ Computer
Corporation and is not an updated version, and when you upgrade Windows NT
version 3.50 to 3.51, the Netflex network card driver is not updated.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, replace your current Compaq Netflex driver
with the following driver included in Windows NT 3.51:
AMD PCNET Family Ethernet Adapter
NOTE: Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) is the manufacturer of the Compaq
Imbedded Netflex network card.
