Driver Installation
The procedures for installing, binding or merging these drivers
with the network software vary with the operating system type
and version. In general, you install the adapter card driver
during the course of installing the network software. For
detailed instructions, refer to the LAN administration manuals
for your network software.
TIP: Network software manufacturers’ procedures and file structures are
subject to change. This is why the adapter card manual can only provide
general guidelines on installing drivers. Additional, more up-to-date
installation notes may be found in the Read.me file on the CardAssistant
diskette. But for accurate, detailed information on network installation,
your network software manuals are your best source.
General steps for installing a driver
Use the CardAssistant program on the installation diskette to
install the driver.
Network software should not be running on the
computer when CardAssistant is invoked. To make
sure that configuration works properly, comment out
the network filenames in your
CONFIG.SYS
and
AUTOEXEC.BAT files and then reboot, or boot from a
floppy with no batch files.
1. Insert the diskette into the floppy disk drive and type:
floppydrive :setup17
where
floppydrive
is the disk drive containing the
installation diskette.
2. Select the “Installation” icon on the main menu.
