OSINTPD2 - UNABLE TO RECOGNIZE CD-ROM CONNECTED TO SCSI CONTROLLER IN DOCK2 10/24/96 ======================================================================= Unable to Recognize CD-ROM Connected to SCSI Controller in Dock2 ======================================================================= Please Read Entire Document for Full Explanation of Procedures -------------------------------------------------------------- DESCRIPTION The installation of OS/2 Warp 4 on a ThinkPad 760el in a Docking Station II stops at Diskette 2, with an error message: Unable to find OS2CDROM.DMD. The default for the Adaptec SCSI adapter in the Docking Station is IRQ 11. This IRQ conflicts with the PCI IRQ 11 on the ThinkPad and makes the CD-ROM unusable. RESOLUTION This error is caused by a hardware conflict. It can be resolved by disabling the PCI IRQ 11 in the ThinkPad CMOS, or by assigning IRQ9, or any free IRQ, to the SCSI adapter in the docking station, using the Docking Station II setup program (Ctrl-A). For further assistance with this hardware conflict, contact the PC Company at 1-800-772-2227. warp4 ______________________________________________________________________ IBM disclaims all warranties, whether express or implied, including without limitation, warranties of fitness and merchantability with respect to the information in this document.
