Installation Notes A. NetWare ODI Server Driver Installation (NetWare 3.12) ======================================================== Requirements: ------------- Generic GFC2202 Driver Diskette (GFC07.LAN) Driver Location: \NetWare\ODI\3.12 Installation Procedure: ----------------------- Before you start with the installation process, make sure that the Novell NetWare 386 v3.12 server is properly installed. Similarly, your adapter should also be properly installed in your workstation. 1. Insert the Generic GFC2202 Driver Diskette into drive A and check the contents of subdirectory \NETWARE\ODI\3.12 and \NETWARE\ODI It should contain the following file : GFC07.LAN - Novell NetWare V4.X, 3.1X Server Driver for GFC2202 GFCNW.EXE - Self-Extraction file for Novell NetWare V3.12 Patch 2. Copy the above LAN files from the Generic Driver Diskette into the NetWare 386 subdirectory of your server. 3. Run GFCNW from your server. You will see a series files files have been extracted from this file. (These files are lswap.exe, loader.exe, autoexec.ncf, ethertsm.nlm, msm31x.nlm and nbi31x.nlm) 4. Run LSWAP for your SERVER.EXE. If your Netware 386 subdirectory name is not "NWSERVER". Please notice the usage of the LSWAP. USAGE: LSWAP [loaderFilePath [serverFilePath]] Default loaderFilePath = C:\NWSERVER\LOADER.EXE Default serverFilePath = C:\NWSERVER\SERVER.EXE 5. Run SERVER.EXE from your server. 6. When the NetWare 386 prompt appears (indicated by a colon), load your server driver. Simply type: : LOAD [d:]GFC07 SLOT=1 [1..8] TP [AUI,BNC,AUTODETECT,TP_FULL_DUPLEX] LINE_SPEED=100 [10,100] FRAME=ETHERNET_802.3 <Enter> (Command Syntax : LOAD [d:]<Driver Name> SLOT=<SLOT ID.> <MEDIUM TYPE> LINE_SPEED=<Line Speed> FRAME=<FRAME TYPE>) 7. Bind IPX to the Generic LAN driver. At the NetWare server prompt, type: :BIND IPX GFC07 <Enter> 8. After pressing <Enter> the computer prompts you for the Network Number. For details on how to assign this number, please consult your NetWare 386 Installation Manual. B. NetWare ODI Server Driver Installation (NetWare 4.xx) ======================================================= Requirements: ------------- Generic GFC2202 Driver Diskette (GFC07.LAN) Driver Location: \NetWare\ODI\4.X and \NetWare\ODI Installation Procedure: ----------------------- 1. Insert the Generic GFC2202 Driver Diskette into drive A and check the contents of subdirectory \NETWARE\ODI\4.X It should contain the following files: GFC07.LAN - Novell NetWare V4.X, 3.1X Server Driver for GFC2202 GFC07.LDI - Novell NetWare V4.X Server Driver Installation Information File MSM.NLM ETHERTSM.NLM NBI.NLM AUTOEXEC.NCF 2. At the NetWare prompt (indicated by the Server name), run the INSTALL.NLM program by typing: server name: LOAD INSTALL <Enter> 3. Select "Maintenance/Selective Install" and press <Enter>. 4. Select "LAN Driver Options (Configure/Load/...)" and press <Enter>. 5. Press the <Ins> key to specify other drivers to install. 6. Press <F3> and specify the driver path (A:\) and press <Enter>. 7. The GFC07.LAN driver should appear in your choice list for the 'Select a LAN Driver' field. Choose this driver to start the driver loading and binding procedure. This will allow you to load and bind all 4 frame types supported by NetWare. 8. Next time you start up your system, simply follow steps 2 to 4 to complete the installation. NOTE: In Netware 4.X this driver must be loaded after loading: - NBI.NLM - MSM.NLM - ETHERTSM.NLM If your NetWare Server is V4.0 or V4.10. You must unload the ETHERTSM and MSM in your server first, then load ETHERTSM in \NETWARE\ODI\4.X of this release diskette. C. NetWare DOS ODI Workstation Driver Installation ================================================== This section describes the procedure to install the NetWare workstation driver for your adapter. Requirements: ------------- Generic GFC2202, Driver Diskette (PCIMLID.COM) Driver Location: \DOS Installation Procedure: ----------------------- Before you start with the installation process, make sure that the adapter is properly installed and configured. Make sure the your NetWare operating system is properly installed. 1. Run the following command in the order given below and press <Enter>: lsl pcimlid ipxodi netx (or vlm) 2. You can now log into your network. D. Installation Notes ===================== 1. The default frame type for the GFC07.LAN binding is Ethernet_802.2 and not Ethernet_802.3. This is the difference between V3.11 and V4.X drivers. The GFC07.LAN also supports the NetWare V3.11 environment. However, it requires loading of some patch NLMs before loading it. 2. Remember to specify LASTDRIVE=Z in the CONFIG.SYS file. 3. Edit the NET.CFG if you want to change some parameters. For example, if you're using a NetWare 3.11 workstation and want to log into a NetWare v4.X server. The default frame type of NetWare 3.11 is Ethernet 802.3, while that of NetWare v4.X is Ethernet 802.2. Before you can log into the NetWare v4.X , make sure there is a protocol binding for Ethernet 802.3 in the server's NET.CFG file. This is normally included in the [MLID] section. A sample NET.CFG file is given below: LINK DRIVER PCIMLID TP ;; Medium type in used : : ---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.
