                   CAN'T CONFIGURE IBM 16/4 CARD IN PREMMIA GX

PROBLEM:    With the OS/2 Warp Full pack, customer experiences problems 
            configuring an IBM Token Ring, Auto 16/4 adapter when using 
            a RAM size of 32K in a Premmia GX.  The operating system fails
            to load the Token Ring driver and generates the following error 
            message:
                      LT00042 The IBM 160S2_nif MAC was not 
                      able to bind Return code=0x24. 

            The driver loads properly with an 8k or an 16k boundary.

CAUSE:      Customer is using an older version of the Lanaid utility.

SOLUTION:   The Lanaid utility, version 1.30 or higher fixes the problem.  
            Please contact IBM Support to get the latest version of this 
            utility and other drivers.
