336.0. "RoamAbout fails on Dell XPI with NT4.0" by ALFSS2::OLSEN_G (Hey y'all, how y'all doin'?) Mon Mar 17 1997 09:58
    Just a heads up on this one - bit me pretty hard!
    
    Problem:
    
     On a Dell XPI laptop, Windows NT 4.0, attempting to load the
    RoamAbout DS 915 (DEINA) card failed - Set all the parameters
    correctly in installing the card, but the card always failed on reboot and
    never worked.
    
    
    Analysis:
    
    	Dell has apparently written it's own version of Plug and Play to
    work with what appears to be their OEM version of NT 4.0 that they load
    on their hardware - at lease the XPI - presumably other hardware as
    well.
    
    Solution:
    
    Delete NT and reinstall using Microsoft's media.
