Install The Driver
------------------

1.  Install the card in the PCI slot and connect the cable to the network;
    turn on the computer and start Windows ME. **HAVE YOUR WINDOWS ME CD
    ROM AVAILABLE** because you will need to copy some additional system
    files.

       remove it.

       Note, if you do not see any "PCI Ethernet Controller", Windows ME
       fails to detect your adapter. There may be problem with the adapter
       itself or with the system BIOS.

    g. Click Refresh and a "Add New Hardware Wizard" appears identifying
       the card as a "PCI Ethernet Controller";
    h. goto next step.

3.  Click Next then select "Search for the best driver for your device
    [Recommended]".

4.  Click Next then enable the "Specify a location" check box; insert the
    "SiS PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter Drivers Disk" in your drive A: or B:
    and specify correct path, e.g. A:\WINME or B:\WINME

5.  Click Next then Windows ME identifies the card as
    "SiS 900 PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter"
    and the "Location of driver:" is A:(or B:)\WINME\NETOEM.INF.
