33. If you receive the following error message: Service Control Manager Error it means the following:
This problem will occur if Windows NT is installed and the latest Service Pack is installed before the network card is installed. If Srv.sys is not present when the Service Pack is applied it will not be updated because Update.exe will only update components that are installed on the Windows NT system. When Windows NT starts up after the network card has been installed, Windows NT SRV.SYS is being used. To correctly work with the rest of the updated system files, the Server service must be updated to the same version as the installed Service Pack. The resolution is to reapply the Windows NT Service Pack.
You have successfully installed the Turbo Token-Ring PC Card.
