Out of memory
Memory allocation failed
Not enough memory to run the ICU |
Either of these messages can appear if the system runs out of memory during
your operation.
This message appears when you start the ICU if the system does not have
enough memory to run the utility. |
Disable any terminate-and-stay-resident (TSR) programs or any unneeded device
drivers. |
Can't open index file.
This file is required for ICU to run. |
The ICU cannot find the index file for its database. |
Make sure to switch to drive A before attempting to start the utility. |
No Configuration
Manager. |
The device driver needed by the ICU is corrupted or is not correctly
configured. |
Verify that the following device statement appears in your config.sys file:
device=drive:\directory\drivers\dos\dwcfgmg.sys
In this statement, drive and directory represent the drive and directory
where the driver resides. The default is c:\plugplay. |
At least one Plug and Play card in your system is not configured due to
conflicts. These are marked "config err" in the list of configured
cards.
Due to conflicts, the ICU could only configure some Plug and Play cards in
your system. Unconfigured cards are marked "config err" in the
list of configured cards. |
The Configuration Manager or the ICU cannot configure at least one Plug and
Play expansion card because of resource conflicts with one or more cards. |
You must reconfigure the conflicting card(s). To find the conflicting card,
perform the following steps:
-
Select the Plug and Play expansion card marked with config err, and then
click Modify.
The Card Configuration dialog box displays the functions assigned to the Plug
and Play expansion card.
-
Select a function and then click Settings. Click the Cancel button if the ICU
does not display a message naming the conflicting card.
-
Repeat step 2 until the ICU displays a message box naming the conflicting
card and the resource(s) in conflict. See
the following table entry for an
explanation of this message box.
|
|
This device is unconfigurable because of a resource conflict with card
card_name. The conflicting resource is resource_name. To fix, reconfigure
the conflicting card. |
You cannot configure the selected card because one of its resources is
already being used by another device. |
Perform the following procedure:
-
Make a note of the card name and the type of conflicting resource.
-
Follow the procedure in "Modifying a Card" and change
the value for
resource_name used by card_name.
|
|
The ICU has
successfully configured all Plug and Play cards in your system. For the new
configuration to take effect, save the configuration, then reboot your
system. |
The ICU has successfully configured all of the Plug and Play expansion cards
that were not configured by the Configuration Manager. |
To accept these settings, save the configuration information into NVRAM by
selecting Exit from the File menu and then selecting Yes to save. You must
reboot your system for these settings to take effect. |
|
The loaded card is not a category card. Press OK to proceed. |
The category you have chosen is not the correct category under which to add
this card. |
Select OK. The ICU automatically opens the correct category's dialog box.
Continue the procedure for adding the card as described in
"Adding a Listed Card" or
"Adding an Unlisted Card". |
No more DMA values can be added.
No more interrupt values can be added.
No more memory values can be added.
No more I/O port values can be added. |
No more values are available for the resource you are trying to add or modify. |
The maximum number of values for each resource is as follows:
-
4 DMA channels
-
7 IRQ lines
-
9 memory address blocks
-
20 I/O ports
To free values for the resource you are trying to add or modify, delete some
of the values listed in the resource box for the card. If your card requires
all of the values listed, contact your card manufacturer to resolve the
issue. |
|
The ICU detects
a resource conflict between this card and conflicting_card.The conflicting
resource was: resource. |
You added or modified a card that now requires a resource value
already in use by conflicting_card. |
Try each of the following options until the problem is resolved:
-
Modify the card you are adding so that it uses a different value for resource.
See "Modifying a Card"
for instructions.
-
Modify conflicting_card so that it uses a different value for resource. See
"Modifying a Card"
for instructions.
-
If conflicting_card is not the system board or riser board, remove it from
the computer. See "Removing a Card"
for instructions.
-
Remove all expansion cards from the ICU, and then add them back one at a time,
beginning with the new card and resolving resource conflicts as they arise.
See "Removing a Card" and
"Adding a Listed Card"
or "Adding an Unlisted Card"
for instructions.
-
If you cannot resolve the resource conflict by any of the preceding methods,
remove the new card. If you were modifying an existing card, reset the
modified card to its previous resource value.
|
The configuration (.cfg) file used by the ICU for this card is now invalid or
does not exist. Do you wish to load the file?
No configuration (.cfg) file exists for the card being modified. Do you want
to load one? |
This message appears when you try to add a listed card and the configuration
file for this card has been corrupted or deleted from the database.
This message appears when you modify a card and its configuration file does
not exist or has been deleted. |
You can get a copy of the configuration file from the original ISA
Configuration Utility Diskette that you used to create the backup ICU
diskette. Use the following procedure:
-
Insert the original ISA Configuration Utility Diskette into drive A.
-
Change to the
db
subdirectory on the diskette drive.
-
Use a text editor to search the
icu.ndx
file for the card ID of the card you want to add or modify.
The name of the configuration file is part of this card ID. For example, if
the card ID is ICU0200, the configuration file is !icu0200.cfg.
-
Copy the configuration file from the original ICU diskette to the backup
diskette.

|
This is an EISA system. Use an ECU, not the ICU, to configure your system. |
This message appears if you attempt to run the ICU on an EISA system. |
To use the ICU, you must load the utility onto a non-EISA system. |
|
You have added a card using settings different from factory default.
Reconfigure the card to the settings in the next display (see
the card's manual) before installing it. |
This message can appear in two situations:
-
You added an ISA expansion card, selected OK, and the ICU had to use resource
values different from the card's defaults to avoid conflicts.
-
You added an ISA expansion card, selected Advanced, and chose resource values
different from the card's defaults.
|
Make a note of the new card configuration shown in the Card Resource Usage
dialog box displayed after this message. Change jumper settings on the ISA
expansion card to match the new card configuration. |
