4-2 CHAPTER 4: INSTALLING A NETWORK DRIVER FOR WINDOWS 95
Before Installing the Driver
Before you install the NDIS 4 driver, make sure that the
3C319 NIC is installed as described in Chapter 2, and that
Windows 95 is installed.
Have the Windows 95 software accessible on diskettes,
CD, or hard drive in case the installation utility requests
protocol files from the Windows 95 software library.
If your network environment uses the TCP/IP
communications protocol, you must obtain from your
network administrator all the information you will need
to define an IP address during the installation process.
