Windows NT Server or Workstation
Automatic configuration
PCI computers automatically detect and configure PCI-compliant adapters
while booting. The PRO/100B TX PCI adapter IRQ level and I/O address are
automatically set by the BIOS each time you start your computer.
Start your computer to automatically configure the adapter. Configuration is
complete when Windows NT starts or the DOS prompt appears.
If your computer displays an error while booting, it may require additional
steps to configure. See the PCI Installation Tips section on page 17 for more
information.
Install network drivers - Windows NT Version 4.0 only
After putting the adapter in the computer and starting Windows NT, you need
to install the Intel drivers. Have the Windows NT CD-ROM disk available for
this procedure.
If you are installing Windows NT 4.0 at this time, click the Start
Search button when the network adapter installation window
appears. This allows NT to auto-detect the adapter (as the “Intel
82557-based 10/100 Ethernet Adapter”). You may then skip steps
1 - 4 below.
1 Double-click the Network icon in the Control Panel.
2 Click the Adapters tab in the window that appears.
3 Click Add. A list of adapter appears.
4 Select the “Intel EtherExpress PRO/100B PCI Adapter” and click OK.
The required Intel drivers and the Intel PROSet utility are installed.
