IBM PC Server/IBM PS/2 - Automatic configuration problem with ActionMedia/2 or Image Adapter/A
Applicable to: World-Wide
Symptom:
After an Automatic Configuration, the adapter support drivers for ActionMedia/2 or Image Adapter/A will indicate the adapter is not present, or is not functional (No video).
Details:
The current automatic configuration algorithm will always select the adapter configuration address option that occupies the smallest amount of space in the "adapter ROM area." Depending on the software set-up options and application, this may not be adequate. These address options are the same choices displayed during the manual "Change Configuration" function.
This will select "NO SPACE USED (DISABLED)" for the ActionMedia/2 or Image Adapter/A ROM space.
Problem Isolation Aids:
None
Fix:
Use the Reference Diskette (System Partition) "View Configuration, Change configuration" function, to manually configure the ActionMedia/2 or Image Adapter/ROM address to a selection other than 'DISABLED'.
