PCMCIA Fast Ethernet Setup
for Client 32 Drivers in Windows 95
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Setup
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Client32 drivers are required for connecting to a 4.x
server while in Windows 95 only. If you are using a
3.x server instead, follow the Windows 95 setup instructions
on the PCMCIA Ethernet driver disk or in your user guide
to get access to your Novell network from Windows 95.
Before you begin, obtain the Client32 disks or CD-ROM
from Novell. You may be able to download a copy of
the disk(s) from Novell's BBS or web site.
Remove the PCMCIA Fast Ethernet Card from your PC now if it has
already been inserted into a PCMCIA slot.
Follow the directions below to install and/or configure
your Client32 drivers for use with the Fast Ethernet Card.
1. If Novell's Client32 drivers are already installed on
your computer, do the following to remove any
network adapter settings that may conflict with the
Fast Ethernet Card: Click on Start, Settings, Control
Panel, and double-click on the Network icon. If you
see any network adapters listed in the box, remove
them. Finally, remove all floppy disks from your
computer and reboot.
2. If you have not installed Novell's Client32 drivers
onto your computer, run the Client32 SETUP.EXE
program. When the program appears, click Yes,
followed by Start to begin the installation. When
Setup is finished copying files to your system,
reboot.
3. After Windows 95 is up and running, remove all
floppy disks from your computer. Insert the
PCMCIA Fast Ethernet Card into your PC.
There are currently two versions of Windows 95:
. the original release (version A)
. a later release (also known as OSR2, or version B)
The Client32 installation procedure will vary from this
point forward depending on the version of 95 that
you're using.
If a window appears that is titled New Hardware
Found, you are using version A. Skip to step 4 below.
If a window appears that is titled Device Driver
Wizard instead, you are using version B. Skip to step 7
below.
4. You are using version A. Click OK. Click on the
Driver from disk provided by hardware
manufacturer option, then click OK.
5. Put the PCMCIA Fast Ethernet driver disk into drive A. Type
a:\client32 and press Enter.
If you receive a Msgsrv32 error message, don't
worry -- just click on the Ignore button. Some
versions of the Client32 Novell software have a bug.
Ignore it and proceed.
6. Windows 95 will begin copying files. Supply any
setup disks or CD-ROMs as necessary. When asked
if you want to restart your computer, choose Yes.
Skip to step 10.
7. You are using version B. Click Next. Windows 95
will scan your computer.
8. Click on the Other Locations button when it
appears. Put the PCMCIA Fast Ethernet driver disk into drive A.
Type a:\client32 and press Enter. Windows 95 will
locate the client driver. Click on the Finish button.
If you receive a Msgsrv32 error message, don't
worry -- just click on the Ignore button. Some
versions of the Client32 Novell software have a bug.
Ignore it and proceed.
9. When the installation is complete, restart your
computer.
10. After rebooting your PC, click on Start, Settings,
Control Panel, and double-click on the Network icon.
Double-click on Novell NetWare Client32 and make
any setting changes as necessary. When you're
finished, save them and reboot.
The Client32 drivers have been installed. You
should now be able to access your Novell NetWare
network through the Network Neighborhood icon.
If you would also like to enable Windows 95 built-in
networking in order to share files, drives, and printers
between computers, follow all of the directions in
the File & Printer Sharing section of the Windows 95
README.TXT document that is included on the Fast Ethernet
driver disk.
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.
