Troubleshooting

The menu options permit you to view the configuration and device

information, run diagnostics, access technical support and

readme

files, and leave the

EMDIAG

program.

When you quit

EMDIAG

, you can access the

cogent.log

adaptec.log

in your directory. This ASCII text file contains BIOS

configuration information generated by

EMDIAG

. This information

can be used by Technical Support to help diagnose problems.

Configuration Status

When you select the Configuration Status option on the Main Menu,

the Current Configuration screen appears. The Current

Configuration screen shows the resources in use by the NIC. Use

this option to determine if your NIC is recognized by the system.

Note:

If Configuration Status reports that no Adaptec NIC is

found, your NIC is not yet ready for use. Make sure that

your PCI BIOS is assigning resources to the PCI slot of the

NIC and that the NIC is in a bus mastering slot.
