*                           TECHNICAL NOTE                                 *
****************************************************************************

1) WARNING: When loading the EMM386.EXE program, you must use the new version
   from DOS 6.22 or above.  If you load an older EMM386.EXE program (below 
   DOS 6.22), your computer will hangup while loading the network driver.

2) The DE-530CT adapter should be used in a 32-bit PCI slot that supports PCI
   Local Bus Mastering.  It cannot be plugged into a PCI Bus Slave slot.

3) Currently, the Pentium/486 motherboards provide at most 3 PCI slots.  Each
   slot has a pre-assigned Interrupt and I/O Addresses via the PC BIOS.  
   Therefore, as soon as you insert the DE-530CT card into a PCI slot, the
   PC BIOS should automatically assign unique addresses for the network card.

   In most cases, the DE-530CT card should work fine using the pre-assigned
   IRQ and I/O addresses.  Occasionally, however, the DE-530CT may have an
   IRQ conflict with other adapters in the system.  If so, you will need to 
   manually change the IRQ setting of the DE-530CT's PCI slot.  And, this
   process may somewhat be difficult and confusing:

      - In some PCs, you may need to manually set the jumpers on the
      motherboard.  Afterwards, you will also need to specify the 
      PCI interrupt through the PC BIOS setup.  (please refer to your
      motherboard's manual for detailed information.)

      - In some PCs, you can specify the PCI interrupt directly through
      the PC BIOS setup without altering any hardware jumpers.

      - In some PCs, you will not be able to specify the PCI interrupt.
      You can only use the interrupt that has been pre-assigned by the PC.

   Although it is advisable to set a unique IRQ address for each PCI slot, 
   depending on your PC, you may or may not be able to do so.
