NDIS Driver Installation Overview
=================================
The NDIS driver programs included in the driver diskette are compatible with
all PEEPP Ethernet cards. These driver programs comply with Microsoft's NDIS
v2.0.1 specification. The following text files describe the installation
procedure for some of the most popular operating systems supporting NDIS
drivers:
File Description
------------ ----------------------------------------------------------
3OPEN.TXT 3Com 3+ Open installation text file
BANYAN.TXT Banyan Vines installation text file
LANMAN.TXT MS LAN Manager installation text file
LANSRV.TXT IBM LAN Server installation text file
IBMLAN.TXT IBM LAN Support Program and LAN Services installation text file
PATHWAY.TXT WIN/TCP Pathway installation text file
PATHWORK.TXT DEC Pathworks installation text file
PCNFS.TXT Sun PC-NFS installation text file
The systems listed above are just some of the network operating systems that
support the NDIS driver. Newer versions of these systems might have already
been released in the market. In general, any system that uses the NDIS 2.0.1
driver is functionally compatible with the NDIS drivers included in the driver
diskette.
*********************************
*NDIS PROTOCOL.INI User's Guide *
*********************************
This guide lists the available PROTOCOL.INI keywords for all NDIS device drivers.
Most of the keywords are optional and come with their respective default values.
The asterisk symbol (*) indicates where the keyword applies.
IOADDRESS - This keyword specifies the I/O base address used by the adapter.
This value must match the actual address setting on the adapter.
If this keyword is not specified, the default value will be put into
effect.
INTERRUPT - This keyword specifies the interrupt line used by the adapter. This
value must match the actual IRQ setting on the adapter. If this
keyword is not specified, the default value will be put into effect.
DRIVERNAME- This keyword specifies the driver name for the adapter.
NETADDRESS- This keyword specifies the node address (in hex) used by the adapter
. This option is used only to override the node address stored in
the adapter. With this keyword specified, the specified address will
be used instead of the adapter's actual node address.
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.
