When a computer that supports Intel® PRO/100 CardBusII adapters starts up at power-on or re-boot, any CardBusII adapter, including Intel® PRO/100 S Mobile adapters, require initialization before they can be used by network and communications software. Microsoft Windows* products handle this function automatically; MS-DOS requires a utility to enable the adapter. That utility is called a point enabler.
Expanded Memory Manager (e. g. EMM386.exe) might cause resource conflicts when loading CBCombo.exe. Several switches can be used when loading CBCombo.exe that will resolve the resource conflict. The most common switches used are:
- No com - used to turn off the com port on LAN only adapters
- Memory =xxxxx - used to designate a specific memory space
- IRQ=X - used to designate a specific IRQ
When designating a specific memory space, it is recommended that the space designated be reserved when loading the Expanded Memory Manager. If you are booting off a boot disk, a sample Config.sys and Autoexec.bat would be:
Config.sys
device=a:\net\himem.sys
device=a:\net\emm386.exe noems x=e000-e400
dos=high,umb
files=30
device=a:\net\ifshlp.sys
lastdrive=z
Autoexec.bat
path=a:\net
lh a:\net\cbcombo memory=e000
a:\net\net initialize
a:\net\netbind.com
a:\net\umb.com
a:\net\tcptsr.exe
a:\net\tinyrfc.exe
a:\net\nmtsr.exe
a:\net\emsbfr.exe
a:\net\net start
net use z: \\ServerName\SharedFolder
echo Running Setup...
z:\msclient\netsetup\setup.exe /$
