Installing the Drivers for Windows
98
Overview
After physically installing the LAN Card in your computer, follow these
instructions to install the network driver. The installation procedure for the net-
work driver will vary slightly depending on which version of Windows 98 you
are using, and on your current system configuration. If at any time during the
installation you encounter problems, consult the Troubleshooting section.
Installing the LAN Card’s Driver
1. If you haven’t already, start up your computer.
2. Windows 98 will automatically detect the presence of the PCI Ethernet
Controller hardware in your computer.
3. Insert the EtherFast
®
10/100 LAN Card Driver Disk into your floppy drive
while the Add New Hardware Wizard window is visible. Click Next.
At this point, the installation may require files from your Windows 95 CD-
ROM. If prompted, insert your Windows 95 CD-ROM into your CD-ROM
drive and enter d:\win95 in the box that appears (where “d” is the letter of
your CD-ROM drive). If you were not supplied with a Windows 95 CD-
ROM, your Windows files may have been placed on your hard drive by
your computer manufacturer. While the location of these files may vary,
many manufacturers use c:\windows\options\cabs as the path. Try enter-
ing this path into the box. If no files are found, check your computer’s doc-
umentation or contact your computer manufacturer for more information.
5. When asked if you want to restart your PC, remove all disks from your
computer’s drives and click the Yes button. If Windows does not ask you
to restart your PC, click the Start button, choose Shut Down, choose
Restart, then click Ye s .
The Windows 95 Version B driver installation is complete. Refer to the sec-
tion on Configuring the LAN Card for Windows 95, 98, and Millennium for
more information about the setup of the LAN Card.
