- Installation:
- =============
-
- Before starting with the installation process, make sure that the adapter
- is properly installed and configured.
-
- 1. Turn on the power of your PC on to boot from Windows operating system.
- Windows will auto-detect your new adapter, and the "New Hardware Found"
- dialogue box will appear. Select "Driver from disk provided by hardware
- manufacturer" to install driver from the diskette that comes with your
- LAN adapter.
-
- 2. Insert the driver diskette into your floppy drive, and specify the
- path of the driver in the diskette(i.e. A:\) to copy the driver
- files to your system.
-
- 3. When the driver installation is completed, restart Windows.
-
- Note:
-
- 1. The NDIS2 and ODI drivers are only supported in Windows 95.
-
- 2. In Win2000, some applications may have connectivity problem,
- sometimes it's caused by Win2000 scatter-gather DMA compatibility
- issue. There is a parameter in driver set up page "Optimized for
- Performance", setting it to "disabled" can solve this problem.
