FILE NAME: PATHWORK.TXT ======================= Installation Procedures for the Following Networks: DEC Pathworks (Version 4.0) DEC Pathworks (Version 4.1) Your Ethernet Card will work with DEC pathworks using any NE2000 driver, or with Eiger Labs supplied NE2NDIS.DOS NDIS driver. If you are using another NE2000 NDIS driver, please use its name in place of NE2NDIS in the instructions below. ****************************************************************************** * DEC Pathworks (Version 4.0) ****************************************************************************** 1. Run NETSETUP. 2. Select "Ethernet Board". 3. Select "Other". 4. Select NDIS driver. 5. Insert your Driver Diskette into the A: driver. 6. Enter the path to the driver file as follows: A:\NDIS\NE2NDIS.DOS 7. Select PROTOCOL.INI. 8. Enter the path to the PROTOCOL.INI file as follows: A:\DEC 9. Continue with installation. 10. When the installation is complete, you may need to amend your CONFIG.SYS to enable the Card. If your CONFIG.SYS does not contain software to load socket and card services, as well as a card enabler, then copy the file EIGERSC.EXE into the decnet directory and add the line "device=c:\decnet\EIGERSC.exe" before the line "device=c:\decnet\ne2ndis.dos". If your PC contains PCMCIA software then check that it precedes the lines added by NETSETUP. 11. Make sure the PROTOCOL.INI file created contains the same IOBASE, and INTERRUPT numbers as specified by EIGERSC. 12. Reboot the PC. ****************************************************************************** * DEC Pathworks (Version 4.1) ****************************************************************************** 1.

(if you're on E:, make E:\DECNET) Copy the files from the floppy into this directory. Copy or RENAME one of the .DAT files to DECPARM.DAT -If you receive a message from DLLNDIS that says it couldn't find your DECPARM.DAT file, be sure it's on \DECNET on the current disk.

After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.
Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).
If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.
Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.
Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.
Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.
From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.
Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.
Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
