Troubleshooting Your System

Remove and reinstall the drivers if applicable. See the NIC's
documentation.

Change the autonegotiation setting, if possible.

Use another connector on the switch or hub.

If you are using a NIC card instead of an integrated NIC, see the
documentation for the NIC card.

4

Ensure that the appropriate drivers are installed and the protocols are
bound. See the NIC's documentation.

5

Enter the System Setup program and confirm that the NIC ports are
enabled. See "Integrated Devices Screen" on page 66.

6

Ensure that the NICs, hubs, and switches on the network are all set to the
same data transmission speed and duplex. See the documentation for each
network device.

7

Ensure that all network cables are of the proper type and do not exceed the
maximum length.

If all troubleshooting fails, see "Getting Help" on page 195.
