Hello,

I bought Silicom S2S DoubleSerial PCMCIA Card. And I have got a
problem. I installed DOS 6.22 and DOS drivers, but card was not working -
even, if IRQ and other parameters are manually specified.

Please look at this initialization communicat (it seems to be correct):

http://www.wlan.webd.pl/xxx/1.jpg

Then, when I would like to test it there is an error:

and:

I checked my IRQ's and other stuff by SiSoft Sandra - here you have
these logs:

In Windows I can't even install this card - there is immediately blue
screen and computer resets....
Can you please provide me informagtion what should I do? Thanks!

I bought Silicom S2S DoubleSerial PCMCIA Card. And I have got a
problem. I installed DOS 6.22 and DOS drivers, but card was not working -
even, if IRQ and other parameters are manually specified.

Please look at this initialization communicat (it seems to be correct):

Then, when I would like to test it there is an error:

Does the manual tell you that you can test the serial port
without anything attached ? Did you attach something ?

Mostly, serial ports are tested with either a device or a loop
back plug attached.

I Would suggest to connect a loopback plug or, lacking one, some
serial device like a modem or a serial Mouse.
http://www.hardwarebook.info/ will tell you how to built a
loopback plug.

Yes, I attached many things. And the same result, nothing is working, test
failed.

Did you recently buy this card? If so I suggest you contact the manufacturer
or the retailer with a view to replacing it.

Greetings,

I took a look at the setup info from the silicom site. It
appears that the s2s is looking for an os driver/interface
with a name like PC Card & Socket Services v 2.01. I did not
recognize this in the memory lists you posted.

fwiw

Be well,

Tim
