TITLE   :Computer Profile Setup Fails to Setup Intel EtherExpress Pro NIC
PRODUCT :Microsoft Windows NT
PROD/VER::3.5,3.51
OPER/SYS:
KEYWORDS:kbsetup

======================================================================
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Windows NT Workstation versions 3.5, 3.51 
 - Microsoft Windows NT Server versions 3.5, 3.51 
 - MSPRESS Microsoft Windows NT Resource Kit, versions 3.5, 3.51 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


SYMPTOMS
========

Unattended and Computer Profile Setup (CPS) fails to install the Intel
EtherExpress Pro network interface card (NIC).

Following the instructions on "Profiling systems with OEM netcards" in the
CPSREAD.TXT file in the Windows NT version 3.5 Resource Kit or the CPS.HLP file
in the Windows NT version 3.51 Resource Kit is not sufficient.

CAUSE
=====

The OEMSETUP.INF file for the Intel EtherExpress Pro card is not designed to
work with Unattended or Computer Profile Setup.

WORKAROUND
==========

1. See the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

   ARTICLE-ID: Q141519
   TITLE : Unattended and Computer Profile Setup May Fail to Setup OEM NIC

2. Modify CPS.INI:

   [Registry]
   FindInstalledServicesAt = SOFTWARE\Microsoft,SOFTWARE\Intel

3. Modify OEMSETUP.INF file.

   WARNING: Modification of Setup files can cause serious, system-wide problems
   before and after Setup and may require you to reinstall Windows NT to correct
   them. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting from the
   modification of Setup files can be solved. Make Setup file modifications at
   your own risk.

   The modifications below only apply to the
   \DRVLIB\NETCARD\X86\EPRO\OEMSETUP.INF file that is included on the Windows NT
   3.51 compact disc.

   a. First OEMSETUP.INF modification:

         installadapter = +
         Debug-Output "At installadapter"
      ;
      ;   First, check whether the same version of the software exists
      ;
      ;; Following lines added changed for Unattended Install
         ifstr(i) $(!STF_GUI_UNATTENDED) == "YES"
            goto skipoptions
         endif

   b. Second OEMSETUP.INF modification:

         writeparameters = +
         Debug-Output "At writeparameters"
      ;
      ;   Add the rest of the parameters to the Services area
      ;
         Ifstr(i) $(MachineType) == "MCA"
            set NewValueList =
            {{BusType,$(NoTitle),$(!REG_VT_DWORD),$(BusTypeNum)},+
            {McaPosId,$(NoTitle),$(!REG_VT_DWORD),$(NETCARD_ID)},+
            {SlotNumber,$(NoTitle),$(!REG_VT_DWORD),$(SlotNum)},+
            {MediaType,$(NoTitle),$(!REG_VT_DWORD),1}}
         else
            Set IOAddrValue = *($(IOAddrValues),
            ~($(IOAddrList),$(IOAddrValue)))
            Shell "" DebugConfiguration "Before Writing Parameters"
            set NewValueList =
            {{INTERRUPT,$(NoTitle),$(!REG_VT_DWORD),$(IRQValue)},+
            {BusType,$(NoTitle),$(!REG_VT_DWORD),$(BusInterfaceType)},+
            {BusNumber,$(NoTitle),$(!REG_VT_DWORD),$(BusNumber)},+
            {MediaType,$(NoTitle),$(!REG_VT_DWORD),1},+
            {IoChannelReady,$(NoTitle),$(!REG_VT_DWORD),$(IOReadyValue)},+
            {Transceiver,$(NoTitle),$(!REG_VT_DWORD),$(TransceiverValue)},+
            {IOADDRESS,$(NoTitle),$(!REG_VT_DWORD),$(IOAddrValue)}}
         endif

         Shell  $(UtilityInf), AddValueList, $(KeyParameters),
         $(NewValueList)

      ;; Following lines added for Unattended Install
         ifstr(i) $(!STF_GUI_UNATTENDED) == "YES"
           Shell $(UtilityInf),AddDefaultNetCardParameters,$(KeyParameters)
         endif

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.51. We are
