3 Driver Software Installation – Windows 3.x
3.3 Installation in Windows 3.x
Specially developed driver software for Microsoft Win-
dows 3.x is supplied with the ISDN-Controller. This true
32-bit virtual device driver (VxD) takes advantage of
Windows’ Protected Mode.
The AVM ISDN-Controller’s COMMON-ISDN-API 2.0 driver
for Windows supports both Windows and DOS applica-
tions running simultaneously within Windows. This CAPI
version also can be used with older applications designed
for CAPI 1.1. See the Appendix for more information
about CAPI.
Do not load a DOS-based CAPI driver before starting
Windows! If you want to use DOS applications, run them
in a DOS window, or end your Windows session and install
the ISDN-Controller driver for DOS.
Before beginning with the software installation, make
sure that the ISDN-Controller card is installed correctly in
your computer and set to an I/O address that is not used
by any other adapter in your PC (see Chapter 2, “Hard-
ware Installation”).
3.3.1 Installing the Driver Software
To install the ISDN-Controller software for Windows 3.x,
proceed as follows:
1. Start Windows.
2. Insert the driver CD supplied with the ISDN-Control-
ler into your CD-ROM drive. In the “File” menu of the
Program Manager, select the “Run” command. In
the command line, enter the path and file name of
the installation program, e.g.
CD-ROM:\CARDWARE\A1\WINDOWS.3XX\
<Language>\SETUP.EXE
<Language>: Specify the directory with the driver
software for your country (“English” for European
countries or “USA”).
