Note

Although the Eiconcard C2x can be installed in any available

ISA expansion slot (unless the PC’s documentation specifies
otherwise), it is recommended that you install the card in a 16-bit
slot to take advantage of the higher IRQs and memory-address
locations available only through 16-bit slots.

contains a test program to verify the card’s integrity. Consult the

4 Configure the Eiconcard C2x
