Quick installation
This section gives a brief overview of the installation process. For
a more detailed description, refer to page 16, “The Install Pro-
gram”.
1.
Card and Socket Services software should be bundled with
your computer; if it is not, contact your dealer. It is re-
commended that you use this software when installing your
PCMCIA 10/100 Mbps Ethernet Card.
A system with Card and Socket Services installed allows
the PCMCIA card to automatically configure itself. While
the system is on, available system resources and insertion
or removal of the card will automatically be detected.
2.
Run the INSTALL.EXE program found on your driver disk.
The install program guides you through the installation
process and will install the network drivers needed to run
the card on your network operating system.
If you successfully completed the installation, go to step 5.
If installation was unsuccessful, then go to the next step.
3.
If you are using Card and Socket Services, select auto-
configuration. The install program will prompt Card and
Socket Services to assign an available hardware resource
configuration.
4.
If you do not have Card and Socket Services or if your card
does not work with your version of Card and Socket Serv-
ices, the enabler program can communicate directly with
the PCMCIA controller on your system. However, you
must select hardware resource settings that are not being
used by other devices; otherwise, your PC system may
have device conflicts.
