Troubleshooting
PC Diagnostic Program
To run the diagnostic program on your PC, follow the procedure below.
1 Insert the Asanté Driver Disk into drive A.
2 At the DOS prompt, type the following command:
A:\UTILITY\DIAGPCI
3 Press Enter.
A warning message window appears that you should read.
4 Press C to continue (or ESC to abort the diagnostic pro-
gram).
The diagnostic program searches for adapters installed in
your computer system. A screen appears showing you the
adapters found.
5 Select the appropriate adapter from the list and press
Enter.
Use the UP or DOWN arrow key to make a selection.
A screen appears showing you the following menu options:
❏ Loopback Tests — tests the adapter by sending packets
across the components for loopback tests.
❏ Adapter Status — displays the adapter configuration
information such as PCI slot number, base I/O address,
interrupt line, media type, network speed, and Ethernet
node address.
❏ Go Back to previous screen
6 Select Loopback Tests and press Enter.
The program runs a series of tests. Their results are dis-
played for you after each test with a PASSED or FAILED indi-
cation.
7 When the tests finish, verify the results to make sure that
all tests passed.
If a test fails, check that the adapter is seated properly in a
PCI bus-mastering slot or try installing the adapter in a dif-
ferent PCI slot and run the tests again. Make sure your
computers’s power cord is first unplugged before wiggling
or removing any adapter cards!
8 Press any key to return to the menu option screen.
