The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Windows 3.1
  • Microsoft Windows 3.11
This article was previously published under Q89075

SYMPTOMS

When installing or running Digital Communications Associates' (DCA) IRMA Workstation for Windows, your computer may lock or freeze. This usually occurs when running the IRMA COMMCHK program and when:

  • The IRMA card is not found
  • There is a hardware conflict with the IRMA card

CAUSE

The IRMA Card Is Not Found

The DCA IRMA Workstation for Windows may not recognize or detect your IRMA card on an IBM 40 PS/2 with Microsoft Windows operating system version 3.1.

If this problem occurs, you need to obtain the Configuration Diagnostic Disk version 2.1 from DCA.

There Is a Hardware Conflict with the IRMA Card

The IRMA card needs a unique Base I/O Address, UMA address, and IRQ. If there is another card attempting to use these areas, then the IRMA card will not function properly.

DCA IRMA Workstations for Windows is manufactured by a vendor independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding this product's performance or reliability.
