AST-RSN/AST-PREMIUM 286
|
||
|
||
|
||
There is a speed related problem when the AST-RSN is booted
|
||
with the AST-PREMIUM 286's default CPU speed set at 10 MHz.
|
||
Intermittent :08 errors are generated from the AST-RSN's power
|
||
on selftest. This error has no effect on AST-ADVANCED NETWARE,
|
||
but the AST-NETBIOS OPTION reports a NBO:012 error on cold or
|
||
warm boot and aborts.
|
||
|
||
The following is a method of resolving this condition:
|
||
|
||
a. Run set-up on the Premium/286 and set the default CPU
|
||
speed to 6 MHz.
|
||
|
||
b. Copy the 10.com file from the AST-UTILITY Software
|
||
diskette to the root directory of your network boot
|
||
disk.
|
||
|
||
c. Edit the autoexec.bat file on your network boot disk
|
||
and include the "10" command as shown in this example:
|
||
|
||
:*** Network Batch File ***
|
||
:***
|
||
ECHO OFF
|
||
YNPROMPT Y N 39 DO YOU WANT TO START THE NETWORK Y/N
|
||
IF ERROR LEVEL 1 GOTO A
|
||
ECHO ON
|
||
PATH=C:\
|
||
10
|
||
NET SHARE ..........ETC
|
||
|
||
The "10" command when executed will increase the CPU speed from
|
||
6 to 10 MHz.
