The information in this article applies to:
-
Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 3.5
-
Microsoft Windows NT Server version 3.5
SYMPTOMS
When you use HP 10/100 VG ANYLAN network interface card (NIC) with the
corresponding Windows NT driver (HP J2573A ISA), Network Monitor goes into
an unusable state (and won't shut down) when you attempt to start a
capture.
CAUSE
This problem occus when Network Monitor makes statistic queries.
WORKAROUND
HP will soon be releasing a new version of this driver. You can work around
this problem by using a beta version of this driver (available from the HP
Internet FTP site).
The driver (HPFEND.SYS) supports ISA, EISA, and PCI VG cards. There are
different OEMSETUP.INF and .DLL files for each card type.
To use the beta driver:
- Get J2585A.EXE from the HP FTP site:
ftp ftp-boi.external.hp.com (192.6.71.2)
User: anonymous
Password: email-address
pub/computer_products/network directory
binary
- Locate the HP VG ISA Support Disk (A.00.03) or download J2573A.EXE
from the HP FTP site.
- Format a floppy disk.
- Copy the contents of the \WINNT directory from the HP VG ISA disk
to the root of the newly formatted floppy disk. Also, copy the file
\DISK1 from the HP VG ISA disk to the root of the new floppy.
- Extract HP VG PCI drivers disk archive (J2585A.EXE) to hard disk.
- Overwrite \HPFEND.SYS on the new floppy with \BETA\HPFEND.SYS
from the HP VG PCI archive.
- On the Windows NT computer, remove the old ISA driver and
then install the new driver from the floppy disk.
