- Troubleshooting IBM Thinkpad Hardware Setup Problems
-
- If you should experience problems setting up PCMCIA Cards, please follow the
- procedures listed below:
-
- (1) Please ensure that your ThinkPad is using the latest BIOS release for
- that system. Later BIOS releases correct problems that users have
- experienced with the earlier releases. Refer to the ThinkPad BIOS section
- to determine if you need to update your system's BIOS.
-
- (2) Make sure that your software drivers are at the correct release level
- and are setup properly. Refer to the ThinkPad PCMCIA Drivers section to see
- if you need to update your system's PCMCIA device drivers. If you are using
- Point Enablers, please ensure that they are at the latest release level.
-
- (3) Determine if any upper memory conflicts exist between the areas claimed
- by ThinkPad BIOS, Card & Socket Services, and Point Enablers Refer to the
- ThinkPad Memory Map section.
-
- The Device Driver DICRMU01.SYS /MA=C800-CFFF (DOS PCMCIA Resource Map
- Utility) sets the upper memory addresses used by Card & Socket Services.
- The /MA parameter tells Card Services what locations in upper memory can be
- used by PCMCIA cards or Card Services, and must match or be a subset of an
- excluded memory range on the EMM386 line of CONFIG.SYS.
-
- (4) Microsoft Windows can overwrite the upper memory address used by Card &
- Socket Services. To prevent this, add an EmmExclude=XXXX-XXXX statement to
- the [386 Enh] section of SYSTEM.INI (Where XXXX-XXXX is the same as the
- memory region as used in the /MA parameter for the DICRMU01.SYS driver). If
- you are using point enablers, be sure to exclude any upper memory used by
- the enabler by adding an EmmExclude statement to SYSTEM.INI.
-
- (5) Make sure that no interrupt conflicts exist between ThinkPad devices and
- PCMCIA Cards. Refer to the ThinkPad Interrupt Assignments section to view
- the default interrupt assignments. Please note that the ThinkPad System
- Setup Utility allows you to view and change interrupt assignments for many
- internal devices.
-
- (6) Those ThinkPad 365X and 365XD Models with audio use I/O 220 as the default
- audio I/O address. This setting will conflict with a Token-Ring Adapter (At
- I/O A20). Use the ThinkPad Utilities to change the I/O address for audio to
- 240. This will resolve the conflict.

- Installing Windows 95 on the ThinkPad 365C, 365CD, 365CS, & 365CSD
-
-
- (1) For complete Windows 95 directions, please download TPWIN95.EXE from the
- IBM BBS.
-
- (2) It is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that you update your system BIOS to the
- latest BIOS release before installing Windows 95 on your system. Refer to
- the BIOS section for the latest BIOS level for you ThinkPad.
-
- (3) Install Windows 95.
-
- (4) The ThinkPad Features Program for Windows works on Windows 95. If you
- install Windows 95 on a blank hard disk or you haven't installed ThinkPad
- Features Program, follow the instructions of "ThinkPad Features Program -
- Installing for Windows" in the ThinkPad User's Guide. Please ensure that
- you are at the latest levels (refer to Driver Levels section of this
- document).
-
- (5) Windows 95 comes with the integrated PCMCIA support. To use the Windows
- 95 PCMCIA support functions, refer to the Windows 95 documentation or on-
- line help. Note: to use PCMCIA function, you must run the PC Card Wizard in
- Control Panel under My Computer.
-
- If you want to use ThinkPad PC Card Director (or EasyPlaying), you can
- still use ThinkPad DOS PCMCIA device drivers. Follow the instructions in
- the ThinkPad User's Guide for "Installing the PCMCIA drivers - Installing
- for DOS." Make sure that you use the latest PCMCIA drivers.
-
- (6) The video device driver for ThinkPad 365 system is included with Windows
- 95. You do not need to install the ThinkPad Windows video device driver.
- To verify that the correct video driver is installed, select "My Computer",
- select "Control Panel", open "Display", then select "Change Display Type".
- Make sure that "Chips & technology Accelerator" is selected.
-
- (7) Configure Audio Support. Select "My Computer", select "Control Panel",
- open "Multimedia", then select "Advanced". Go to "Audio Devices" in the
- list of "Multimedia Devices", then select "Audio for ESS ES1688 Plug & Play
- AudioDrive". Select "Settings", then select "Use Single Mode DMA".
-
- (8) If you are using an IBM PCMCIA Token-Ring Adapter, download TRCC1.EXE
- for an updated driver for Windows 95.
-
- (9) Windows 95 treats the IBM Ethernet Credit Card Adapter II as a Plug & Play
- Adapter. However, some older versions of this adapter do not support Plug &
- Play. If you insert this adapter into a system running Windows 95, the system
- may lock until you remove the adapter. To correctly configure this adapter for
- Windows 95, boot in Safe Mode, go into Device Manager, and manually configure
- the adpater for I/O 300, IRQ 9, Mem Address D400.

-
- IBM Card & Socket Services Drivers for ThinkPad 365
-
-
- DEVICEHIGH=C:\THINKPAD\IBMDSS01.SYS (DOS PCMCIA Socket Services Driver
- for PCMCIA Socket Services 2.0)
-
- Socket Services uses between 6KB and 7KB of memory .
-
-
- DEVICEHIGH=C:\THINKPAD\IBMDOSCS.SYS (DOS PCMCIA Card Services Driver for
- PCMCIA Socket Services 2.0)
-
- Card Services uses 29KB of memory.
-
-
- DEVICEHIGH=C:\THINKPAD\DICRMU01.SYS /MA=D000-D7FF (DOS PCMCIA Resource Map
- Utility)
-
- The /MA parameter tells Card Services what locations in upper memory can
- be used by PCMCIA cards or Card Services, and must match or be a subset of
- an excluded memory range on the EMM386 line. The PCMCIA Resource Memory Map
- Utility Driver does not remain in memory.
-
-
- DEVICEHIGH=C:\THINKPAD\$ICPMDOS.SYS (DOS PC Card Power Management Driver)
-
- This driver uses 3KB of memory.
-
-
- DEVICEHIGH=C:\THINKPAD\AUTODRV.SYS
-
- This statement loads the PCMCIA Super Client Driver (AUTODRV.SYS) into
- upper memory. AUTODRV.SYS recognizes many popular modems, 3270 cards, and
- SCSI cards. It does not recognize 5250 PCMCIA cards, SDLC cards, or LAN
- PCMCIA cards. AUTODRV.SYS uses 13KB of memory.
-
- Please note that Card & Socket Services also requires a 4KB block of upper
- memory.

- THINKPAD DOS/WINDOWS MEMORY MANAGEMENT TIPS
-
- Memory Management Without PCMCIA Cards
-
- (1) If you do not intend to use PCMCIA Cards, there is no reason to load
- Card & Socket Services. Remove all IBM Card and Socket Services Device
- Drivers from CONFIG.SYS (see previous page).
-
- (2) Review the ThinkPad Memory Map for your system. Include any upper
- memory areas not used by adapter cards in the Docking Station. Be sure to
- exclude the address of the SCSI adapter in the Docking Station if SCSI
- support is needed.
-
- (3) If you are not using the monochrome video mode (most applications do
- not), the Monochrome Video Area (B000 - B7FF) may be mapped (by adding
- I=B000-B7FF to the EMM386.EXE line in CONFIG.SYS). If using Microsoft
- Windows, add a Device=C:\DOS\MONOUMB.386 statement to the [386Ehn] section
- of SYSTEM.INI.
-
- Memory Management With PCMCIA Cards
-
- (1) Many PCMCIA card manufacturers provide Point Enablers with their
- products. Point Enablers are small programs that provide an interface
- directly to the PCMCIA controller; therefore they must be written to support
- a particular type of controller.
-
- Point Enablers are relatively simple to configure, do not require Card &
- Socket Services Drivers, consume no memory (they remove themselves from
- memory after configuring the card), and provide the maximum DOS memory for
- your ThinkPad. However, with Point Enablers, you must specify the slot
- number of the card (therefore , the card must always be in a specific slot).
- You must also manually assign any upper memory blocks and IRQs used by that
- card. In addition, hot-plugging of the card is prohibited (in fact, it may
- damage the card).
-
- If Point Enablers are provided with the PCMCIA card(s) you are using,
- decide whether to use the Point Enablers or Card & Socket Services.
-
- (2) If you use Card & Socket Services, decide whether to use the Super
- Client Driver (AUTODRV.SYS) or the drivers that are provided with your
- PCMCIA card(s). The Super Client Driver automatically recognizes many
- popular PCMCIA cards (including modems, 3270 cards, and SCSI adapters -- it
- does not recognize 5250 PCMCIA cards, SDLC cards, or LAN PCMCIA cards.).
- However, the Super Client Driver can consume more memory than do the drivers
- provided with the PCMCIA card.
-
- (3) Determine the amount and location of upper memory required by your
- PCMCIA card(s), Docking Station, and ISA Adapter cards. If possible, locate
- upper memory required by all PCMCIA cards and ISA Adapters in one contiguous
- block. If using Card & Socket Services, these drivers require a 4KB upper
- memory block that can be located anywhere in upper memory.
-
- (4) Review the ThinkPad Memory Map for your system. Exclude from
- EMM386.EXE's usage the upper memory areas used by (a) the PCMCIA card(s),
- (b) Card & Socket Services (4KB), (c) the upper memory area used by the SCSI
- Adapter in the ThinkPad Docking Station (if applicable), and (d) the upper
- memory areas used by any ISA adapters in the ThinkPad Docking Station.
- Include any available upper memory areas not excluded above.
-
- (5) If using Card & Socket Services, modify the
- DEVICE=C:\THINKPAD\DICRMU01.SYS /MA=XXXX-XXXX line in CONFIG.SYS. Make the
- XXXX-XXXX range match the upper memory area used by any PCMCIA cards (plus
- the 4KB used by Card & Socket Services).
-
- (6) Exclude any memory area allocated to PCMCIA Cards from usage by
- Microsoft Windows by adding an EmmExclude=XXXX-XXXX line to the [386Enh]
- section of the SYSTEM.INI File. Where XXXX-XXXX is the upper memory range
- allocated to the PCMCIA cards. If you are using Card & Socket Services, the
- EmmExclude range must match the /MA= range of the DICRMU01.SYS Driver.
-
- (7) If you are not using the monochrome video mode (most applications do
- not), the Monochrome Video Area (B000-B7FF) may be mapped (by adding I=B000-
- B7FF to the EMM386.EXE line in CONFIG.SYS). If using Microsoft Windows, add
- a Device=C:\DOS\MONOUMB.386 statement to the [386Ehn] section of SYSTEM.INI.
-
- (8) If you are using an IBM PCMCIA Token-Ring Adapter, download the IBM LAN
- Client Code from the IBM BBS. This code loads 802.2 Support, Netbios, the
- Netware Requester, and a TCP/IP stack into extended memory (not upper memory).
- It can reduce the DOS memory consumption of these protocols to 5KB.
-
- Sample Config: IBM PCMCIA Token-Ring Adapter Installed in ThinkPad 365 Systems
-
- Note: Those ThinkPad 365 Models with audio use I/O 220 as the default audio
- I/O address. This setting will conflict with a Token-Ring Adapter (At
- I/O A20). Use the ThinkPad Utilities to change the I/O address for audio
- to 240. This will resolve the conflict.

- IBM PCMCIA MODEM CONFIGURATION
-
- Using the IBM Super Client Driver (AUTODRV.SYS)
-
- (1) The IBM Super Client Driver will automatically recognize IBM PCMCIA
- Modems. Sample CONFIG.SYS file:
-
- DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS
- DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE NOEMS X=D000-D7FF
- DEVICE=C:\THINKPAD\IBMDSS01.SYS
- DEVICE=C:\THINKPAD\IBMDOSCS.SYS
- DEVICE=C:\THINKPAD\DICRMU01.SYS /MA=D000-D7FF
- DEVICE=C:\THINKPAD\$ICPMDOS.SYS
- DEVICE=C:\THINKPAD\AUTODRV.SYS C:\THINKPAD\AUTODRV.INI
-
-
- Using the IBM PCMCIA Modem Point Enabler (Note: Not All IBM PCMCIA Modems
- Support this Point Enabler)
-
- (1) The IBM PCMCIA Modem Point Enabler (called PCCOMDOS.SYS) does not
- require Card & Socket Services. It does reside in memory and requires 16KB.
- Using the Point Enabler can save up to 36KB (if you do not load Card &
- Socket Services or AUTODRV.SYS). However, with the IBM Point Enabler hot-
- plugging of the card is prohibited (in fact, it will damage the card).
-
- (2) Be sure to exclude a 4KB block for the modem in upper memory. If you
- are also using card services, do not include the 4KB block in the /MA=XXXX-
- XXXX parameter of the DICRMU01.SYS driver.
-
- (3) Sample CONFIG.SYS file:
-
- DEVICE=C:\PCCOMDOS\PCCOMDOS.SYS COM2 /BEEP /WINBIOS /AMEM CE
-
- Where: COM2 is the COM 1, 2, 3, or 4 COM 2 is recommended
- /AMEM is the memory location CA00 is recommended
- for the modem's 4KB block
-
-
- Using the IBM PCMCIA Modem Driver
-
- (1) The IBM PCMCIA Modem Driver (called ESTDFM.EXE) does require Card &
- Socket Services. It does reside in memory and requires 25KB. Therefore, I
- recommend that you use the AUTODRV.SYS driver since it takes less memory.
- ESTDFM.EXE is loaded via the AUTOEXEC.BAT:
-
- ESTDFM.EXE S1C2 Where: S1 is the Slot Number
- C2 is the Communications Port (C1, C2, C3, or C4)
-
- MEGAHERTZ MODEM CONFIGURATION
-
- Using the IBM Super Client Driver (AUTODRV.SYS)
-
- (1) The IBM Super Client Driver will automatically recognize most Megahertz
- PCMCIA Modems. Sample CONFIG.SYS file:
-
- DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS
- DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE NOEMS X=D000-D7FF
- DEVICE=C:\THINKPAD\IBMDSS01.SYS
- DEVICE=C:\THINKPAD\IBMDOSCS.SYS
- DEVICE=C:\THINKPAD\DICRMU01.SYS /MA=D000-D7FF
- DEVICE=C:\THINKPAD\$ICPMDOS.SYS
- DEVICE=C:\THINKPAD\AUTODRV.SYS C:\THINKPAD\AUTODRV.INI

-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Using the MegaHertz PCMCIA Modem Point Enabler
-
- (1) The MegaHertz PCMCIA Modem Point Enabler (called SETMHZ.EXE) does not
- require Card & Socket Services. In addition, it removes itself from memory
- once it has configured the modem. This can save up to 49KB (if you
- eliminate Card & Socket Services). However, with the MegaHertz Point
- Enabler, you must specify the slot number of the card (therefore , the card
- must always be in a specific slot). In addition, hot-plugging of the card
- is prohibited (in fact, it will physically damage the card).
-
- (2) Obtain the latest Megahertz Point Enabler. Versions before 3.1 do not
- support the ThinkPad 360 & 755. Latest version is 4.3. Be sure to exclude
- a 4KB block for the modem in upper memory. If you are also using card
- services, do not include the 4KB block in the /MA=XXXX-XXXX parameter of the
- DICRMU01.SYS driver.
-
- (3) The SETMHZ program is loaded via the AUTOEXEC.BAT file. Format of the
- SETMHZ.EXE Program:
-
- SETMHZ.EXE /cn /in /sn /pnnnn /dnnnn
-
- Where: /cn is COM 1, 2, 3, 4 COM 2 is recommended
- /in is IRQ 1 .. 15 IRQ 3 is recommended
- /sn is Slot A, B, C, or D
- /pnnnn is the memory location CA00 is recommended
- /dnnnn is the delay in milliseconds 1500 is recommended
