[2] CLIENT DRIVER (For DOS and Windows 3.1 Only)
The CLIENT DRIVER is a PCMCIA controller enable program. This enable
program only need for DOS and Windows 3.1 system. You should installed
the Socket and Card service in your Notebook before executing the
client driver.If you do not have the Socket or card service program,
please call the Notebook vendor.The client driver will keep resident for
handle card inseration and removal events. This feature can prevent
system crash when remove the card from socket.
To load the client driver, type
ENABLE [/INT=x][/PORT=xxx][/MEM=xxxx][/U][/?]
in DOS command line, or
DEVICE=[PATHNAME]ENABLE.EXE [/INT=x][/PORT=xxx][/MEM=xxxx][/U][/?]
in config.sys file.
where:
[/INT=x] This specifies the hardware interrupt (IRQ) where your
card will be indicated.
The valid IRQs are 2,3,4,5,6,10,11,12,15.
[/PORT=xxx] This specifies the I/O address. The valid ports are 240,
280,300,320,340,360.
[/MEM=xxxx] This specifies the memory window address. The valid
MEMs are D000, D400, D800, DC00.
[/U] This specifies the client driver will free the resident
program when the card is remove from socket.
[/?] This specifies to indicate the program to display all
the possible syntax only.
The default syntax is:
ENABLE /INT=5 /PORT=300 /MEM=D400
After you executed the ENABLE.EXE, you will see the following display for
make sure install successful. Especially you must see the Node ID value.
Socket : 0 (for example)
IRQ Number : 05 (for example)
I/O PORT Base : 0300H (for example)
Memory Address: D400H (for example)

[3] SOCKET and CARD SERVICES INSTALLATION ADVISORY
For those who installed EMM386.EXE in your config.sys, please exclude
memory address D400-D7FF from your system. PCMCIA Ethernet card enabler
program will use this space to read Ethernet ID and CIS from on-board
flash memory.
[Example]
DEVICE=EMM386.EXE NOEMS X=D400-D7FF
or
DEVICE=EMM386.EXE NOEMS X=D000-DFFF
For those who installed Card and Socket Services device driver in your
config.sys, please run ENABLE.EXE(see Client Driver) after those device
drivers. The default configuration is INT=5, PORT=300 and MEM=D400.

[4] DIAGNOSTIC PROGRAM
CARDTEST.EXE is a complete test program that users can make
sure if the PCMCIA card is good or not. It provides the following
card test functions:
. IRQ verify
. IO base verify
. RAM test
. Card Node ID test
. Internal Loopback test
. External Loopback test
[Note] Before execute diagnostic program, you must make sure the client
driver, ENABLE.EXE, is installed.
[5] Netware DOS ODI Driver
This directory contains Ethernet DOS ODI driver CARDODI.COM that
supports NetWare 3.x and 4.x, NetWare Lite and other ODI interface
application.
CARDODI.COM : DOS/ODI Driver for NetWare 3.x and 4.0.
The following instructions let you to install Novel NetWare Ver. 386
DOS ODI Driver :
5.1 How To Install
---------------
You need following five files to install DOS ODI DRIVER.
a. LSL.COM ---- supported by Novell
b. CARDODI.COM ---- Novell DOS ODI Driver ,supported
by manufacturer
c. IPXODI.COM ---- supported by Novell
d. NETx.EXE ---- supported by Novell
or
EMSNETx.EXE
or
XMSNETx.EXE
e. NET.CFG ---- optional,configuration file
After boot your workstation, type following comments on the console:
LSL <Enter>
CARDODI <Enter>
IPXODI <Enter>
NETx <Enter>
then,you can log in to the file server.
Normally, you will need a NET.CFG file to configure your Ethernet
PCMCIA card.
You can see Netware 386 Installation appendix E for more
information about NET.CFG.
Below is a sample NET.CFG file:
LINK DRIVER CARDODI
Frame Ethernet_II
Frame Ethernet_802.3
Protocol IPX 0 Ethernet_802.3

[6] Packet Driver
The driver CARDPD.COM can be used for Ethernet PCMCIA adapter.
To load the packet driver , type CARDPD 0x60.
CARDPD syntax:
CARDPD [-n] [-d] [-w] <PACKET_INT_NO> [IRQ] [IO_BASE]
where:
[-n] Convert ETHERNET II header to IEEE 802.3 header.
[-d] Do not start LAN card until this driver is
called by the higher layer programs first.
[-w] Running under Windows environment.
<PACKET_INT_NO> This specifies the software interrupt (IRQ) where
you'll load the packet driver. It must be in the range
0x60 to 0x80.
[IRQ] This specifies the hardware interrupt (IRQ) where your
card will be indicated.
[IO_BASE] This specifies the I/O address .
Example:
The following command line loads the Ethernet Packet Driver
at software interrupt 60h, at I/O address 300, at hardware interrupt 5.
CARDPD 0x60 0x5 0x300
or
CARDPD 0x60
Note: The default I/O address is 300 .
Note: The default hardware interrupt is 9
Note: The placement of "0x" prior to the parameters.

package consists of drivers and utilities which will allow you to
utilize your PCMCIA hardware and firmware to the fullest extent.
Please review this document carefully. There are special software notes
listed below that might be applicable to your system.
---------------------------
Installation CardSoft 3.11
---------------------------
To install the CardSoft is very simple, just type "install" in root
directory. The installation program will transfer all the files to
your system automatically.
---------------------------
CardSoft 3.1 Software Notes
---------------------------
MEMORY MANAGERS
When using a memory manager you must exclude a memory range
needed for the CardSoft software. It is optimal to exclude a 64K
range. For example, if using EMM386, the device line listed in
the CONFIG.SYS file should appear as follow:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE X=D000-DFFF
(where X=D000-DFFF excludes the memory range D000-DFFF).
ADVANCED POWER MANAGEMENT
If your system is designed to conserve battery life through the
use of Advanced Power Management drivers, it may be necessary to
load the CardSoft CS_APM driver. This driver will allow CardSoft
3.1 to properly handle the Power Management cycles issued by the
BIOS. Contact your system vendor to determine if your system
supports Advanced Power Management.
To install CS_APM.EXE please edit your CONFIG.SYS file and add
the following line after the other CardSoft 3.1 files listed:
INSTALL=C:\CARDSOFT\CS_APM.EXE
Save the CONFIG.SYS file and reboot your system.
Download Driver Pack
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.
