\README.TXT Feb. 1996 IC-CARDCT PCMCIA Ethernet Card Contents ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Introduction Requirements Minimum Skill Level Getting Started Driver Directory Structure Revision History Copyrights, Trademarks, and Disclaimers Introduction ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Thank you for purchasing the IC-CARD PCMCIA Ethernet card. This diskette with network driver support for the IC-CARD PCMCIA Ethernet card. There is a format change for this driver disk. All READMEs have been reformatted, any easy setup program, and consistency on all documentation provided. NEC98xx drivers are not for NEC computers that are commonly sold in the North America (ie. VERSA). In Japan one of the most popular PCs is a non-DOS compatible called the NEC 9800 series of laptops. Unless the Laptop is specifically marked with NEC9800 or compatible , only select the "IBM PC or compatible" item. During 1996, IC-CARD will change all driver disks to ARJ compression for better driver management and provisions for even more drivers to the disk. We hope our new readmes and installation will minimize the users effort to make our products work. Requirements ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ A PCMCIA compatible Laptop A PCMCIA chipset that is PCIC compatible (Intel, Cirrus, Vadem, and VLSI) or Databook compatible. A compatible network operating system A IC-CARD (our single media cards are not supported) A knowledge of basic DOS commands and editing text files Minimum Skill Level ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ A knowledge of basic DOS commands A knowledge of editing text files A knowledge of DOS basic file structure (CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT) A knowledge of the network driver configuration being used Getting Started ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Installation program is provided to assist ease of setup for users. Installation program will configure PCMCIA drivers, install the appropriate network drivers for popular network operating systems, and run diagnostics on the IC-CARD. Before running Installation program, please make a backup copy of your diver diskette. Then simply run INSTALL.EXE program in the root of the driver disk(ie. A:\INSTALL<Enter>). Installation will copy selected driver to the destination directory. If the network operating system you are using is not covered by the installation program, refer to the individual documentation provided for each driver directory. Driver Directory Structure ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ The network drivers on this disk is organized in the following structure. Each directory contains a README.TXT file which provides you with detailed installation instructions for drivers in that directory: These new drivers will support the complete IC-CARD PCMCIA Ethernet adapter series. All drivers will automatically detect the hardware information including I/O base address and IRQ. The network media connector type will also be automatically detected during driver initialization.
