SYMPTOMS
========

When you insert a Xircom CE2 PCMCIA network adapter card, the card may not
work and the computer may not be connected to the network. When this
occurs, your computer may stop responding (hang).

CAUSE
=====

This network adapter may require a real-mode enabler or different MAC
drivers to work.

RESOLUTION
==========

To correct this problem, load the real-mode card and socket services
drivers in the Config.sys file.

Although the actual drivers that are required vary from one system to
another, they typically look like:

device=cs.exe
device=sscirrus.exe

MORE INFORMATION
================

There have been cases in which the NDIS 2 drivers cause the computer to
hang. In these cases, the real-mode network drivers should be replaced with
the Novell NetWare ODI/NETX or VLM drivers.
