1. Enable the U.S. Robotics 10/100 PCMCIA NIC TX

   USROPEN.EXE is SU.S. Robotics 10/100 PCMCIA NIC TX MS-DOS enabler program.  You have
   to  run USROPEN.EXE to enable U.S. Robotics 10/100 PCMCIA NIC TX before loading the
   NDIS2 driver.

   After the U.S. Robotics 10/100 PCMCIA NIC TX NDIS2 driver is installed, a line similar to
   the following is added in the CONFIG.SYS file to load the NDIS2 driver at DOS initialization:

   DEVICE=C:\LANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\SUR\USRPCM\USRPCM.DOS

   For this NDIS2 driver to be successfully loaded, you must add a line in CONFIG.SYS 
   to load USROPEN.EXE to enable the adapter first.   
   The line to load USROPEN.EXE must precede the line to load the  NDIS2 driver.

   The syntax to load USROPEN.EXE in CONFIG.SYS is:

   DEVICE=C:\LANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\USR\USRPCM\USRPCM.EXE [/IRQ:x][/IOP:xxx]

      * IRQ - interrupt (IRQ) number to be used by U.S. Robotics 10/100 PCMCIA NIC TX.
              This number must not be in use by any other device 
              in the system.

      * IOP - Starting I/O port address in HEX format.  U.S. Robotics 10/100 PCMCIA NIC TX
              requires 32 consecutive free I/O port addresses.  

      The default value for IRQ is 3.  The default value for IOP is  0x300.

   Example:  The following command enables U.S. Robotics 10/100 PCMCIA NIC TX with IRQ 10 and
             I/O port address 300:

   DEVICE=C:\LANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\USR\USRPCM\USRPCM.EXE /IRQ:10 /IOP:300

   If you installed EMM386.EXE in CONFIG.SYS, please exclude memory 
   address range D000-DFFF or D400-D7FF from EMM386.EXE.  USROPEN.EXE
   uses this memory space to read information stored on  the adapter.  

        [Example]
           DEVICE=EMM386.EXE NOEMS X=D000-DFFF

   If you run USROPEN.EXE with non-default IRQ and IOP values,  you
   have to inform the NDIS2 driver which resource values to use in the
   PROTOCOL.INI file.  This file resides in the directory where the
   Microsoft LAN Manager software was installed, in most cases this is 
   the C:\LANMAN.DOS directory.

   For example, if on your system IRQ 10 and I/O Base address 300 are
   free to be used by the U.S. Robotics 10/100 PCMCIA NIC TX, then you 
   specify a line in CONFIG.SYS to load USROPEN.EXE as described above.  
   Since IRQ 10 is not the default value, you have to tell the NDIS2 
   driver the interrupt value to use.  You can use any text editor to 
   edit the C:\LANMAN.DOS\PROTOCOL.INI file. In this file you locate the 
   [USRPCM_NIF] section, and add the INTERRUPT keyword and its value
   in this section as follows:

      INT = 10

   Please consult the sample configuration files at the end of this file
   for more examples.

2. NDIS Driver Installation for LAN Manager v2.2

  1. Enter 'SETUP' in the LAN Manager directory and press <Enter>.
     The Microsoft LAN Manager Setup screen appears.

  2. Select "Configuration" from the menu and then select "Network
     Drivers". 

  3. Select <Add New Config> to display a list of Network Adapter Drivers.

  4. Select <Other Driver> and Setup prompts you to insert your  network driver 
     diskette and enter the new path.

  5. Insert the U.S. Robotics 10/100 PCMCIA NIC TX driver diskette in the drive 
     (e.g. X:\)  and   choose <OK>.
     
     Notice: X: means the drive (Floppy or CD-ROM) containing the driver.

  6. Select the following driver from the available driver list:

       "U.S. Robotics 10/100 PCMCIA NIC TX"

  7. The "Network Protocol" screen appears.  Use the SPACEBAR to select
     the desired protocols to install.  If you have chosen the
     MS TCP/IP protocol, you will be prompted to enter the related
     TCP/IP Settings.  

  8. Choose <OK> to confirm your configuration.  A Configuration Complete
     message appears on the screen.

  9. Press <Save> to save the configuration.

 10. If the LAN Manager Setup program asks for other driver files,
     please enter the path where the LAN Manager system files can
     be found.  Wait for the installation to complete.

 11. Press the F3 key to exit the Setup program.

 12. Copy the U.S. Robotics 10/100 PCMCIA NIC TX enabler program USROPEN.EXE 
     from the  \ENABLER directory on the Driver Floppy to a directory on the 
     hard disk, and add a line in CONFIG.SYS to load USROPEN.EXE as described 
     in the first section of this file. If necessary, modify the PROTOCOL.INI 
     file for the IRQ and I/O base address values and the connection type desired.

 13. Restart the system.

3. PROTOCOL.INI Keywords

   In [USRPCM_NIF] section of the PROTOCOL.INI file, you can specify
   the following keywords:

   IOBASE    This keyword specifies the starting IO Address in
             hexadecimal format.  The default value is 300. 

             This value must match the one reported by USROPEN.EXE.

   INT       This keyword specifies the IRQ value to be used by
             U.S. Robotics 10/100 PCMCIA NIC TX. The default value is 3.

             This value must match the one reported by USROPEN.EXE.

   MEDIA     This keyword specifies the CONNECTIONTYPE to be used:
   
     AutoSense    Sets the connection type to be Auto-negotiation.
                  Since the default connection type is AutoSense, this keyword
                  is redundant.

     S10HD        Forces the connection type to 10Mbps and half duplex.

     S10FD        Forces the connection type to 10Mbps and full duplex.

     S100HD       Forces the connection type to 100Mbps and half duplex.

     S100FD       Forces the connection type to 100Mbps and full duplex.

How To Update Drivers Manually

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.
