Configuration Conflicts (8650)
Configuration Conflicts
The resources used by the server consist of interrupt request
levels (IRQs), direct memory access channels (DMAs), I/O ports (for
example, serial and parallel), and memory. This information is
useful when a resource configuration conflict occurs.
Conflicts in the configuration occur if:
- An installed device requires the same resource as another device.
(For example, if you install an ISA network adapter and an EISA
network adapter, both requesting IRQ 5 ,
you can configure only one of the adapters.
- A device resource is changed
(for example, changing jumper settings).
- A device function is changed
(for example, assigning COM 1 to two different serial ports).
- An installed software program requires the same resource
as a hardware device.
The steps required to resolve a configuration error depends on
the number and variety of hardware devices
and software programs that install.
If a hardware configuration error is detected, a configuration
error message appears after the server completes POST, but
before the operating system starts. You can bypass the error
or start one of the configuration utility programs. Press Esc
to bypass the error and load the operating system. Press F1
to start the Setup program. To start the SCU
program, insert the
diskette in the diskette drive and press F1.
If the System Configuration Utility program resides on a hard disk drive,
type SCU from
the DOS prompt for the appropriate drive.
The Setup program and the System Configuration Utility program only configure the
system hardware. These programs do not consider the requirements
of the operating system or the application programs.
