Making Selections from the Setup Menu
The Setup menu enables you to change the settings for the following
parameters:
• I/O Base—The I/O base address is the I/O address where the
network interface board is located. It is important that the I/O
base address does not conflict with other devices on the system.
The default address range is 300h-31fh. If this does not work,
you have to hardstrap the Turbo board. If you need to select a
different I/O address range, refer to the Resolving BUS Conflicts
on ISA and EISA Systems section in Chapter 2 before running the
NICSETUP utility.
• Memory mode — The memory mode is the amount of actual
memory utilized and owned by the NIC card. There are three
selections:
2 KB
32 KB
64 KB
In most cases, it is recommended that the 2-KB mode be used
leaving a maximum amount of high memory for other application
programs.
• Memory base — The memory base address is the given memory
address where the network interface board is located.
Only one device can use a given memory address range. Check the
documentation supplied with your PC and other installed products
to determine memory address requirements and availability.
If other products use a memory range that conflicts with the
Turbo board, select a range that is not used. Depending upon the
memory mode selected, the Turbo board can be in any unused
high memory area.
