Troubleshooting

1. Windows doesn't detect new hardware with the Compact USB Network Adapter
hardware connected, or it continues to detect the adapter each time I restart
the PC.
• You might not have correctly or securely installed the adapter into your
computer. Check that the adapter is securely inserted into the appropriate
USB Port.
• The system BIOS might not be USB compatible, your PCs USB settings
may not be enabled, or the motherboard may have USB options not sup-
ported by Windows 98, Windows Millennium, or Windows 2000. If you are
not sure, contact your PCs manufacturer.
• Refer to the PC User Guide.
2. Windows can't locate the driver for the Compact USB Network Adapter.
• You may have inserted the wrong Driver CD into your PCs CD-Rom drive.
• The Driver CD may be defective or files may be missing, or you may be
pointing Windows to the wrong drive. Ensure that the driver CD includes
the files "USB100M.inf " and "USB100M.sys".
3. The Windows Logon screen doesn't appear after restarting the computer.
• Click on Start, then Log Off. Log back in. If this doesn't solve the prob-
lem, your PCs manufacturer may have disabled Windows' networking.
Contact your computer's manufacturer for help. If using Windows 2000,
refer to your Microsoft documentation.
4. On the Access Control Tab, User Level Access is selected, but Shared Level
Access is grayed out and not accessible.
• You previously had your primary network logon set to Client for NetWare
Networks. On the Configuration tab of the Network Properties window,
ensure that your primary network logon is set to Client for Microsoft
Networks.
• Your personal web server PC or Microsoft Front Page may require you to
choose a user level for security reasons.
