                       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.
