 Install LAN adapter driver on Client 32 for Windows 95

   Case 1:

   Installing driver on WIN95 WITHOUT Client 32

     If you have previously installed Novell Netware Client 32 under
     your Windows 95 system, skip this section and see "Case 2" below.

     Install Client 32 From Diskette :
     . Copy the GFC2204.INF file to Disk 1 (Setup Disk) of the Client 32
       for Windows 95 software.
     . Copy the GFC2204.LAN driver to the Client 32 LAN driver
       diskette (32-bit).
     . Add a new reference line into the "INF Files" section of
       the NWSETUP.INI file.
       Note: NWSETUP.INI can be found on Disk 1, or in the \NOVELL\CLIENT32\
             INSTALL directory after installation.
       Sample of NWSETUP.INI file:
               .
               .
               .
             [INF Files]
             1=NWClient.inf
             2=NWTrans.inf
             3=ODINSUP.inf
             4=NE3200.inf       <--- replace the line to 4=GFC2204.INF
             5=NE2000.inf
             6=NE15_21.inf
             7=NE2.inf
             8=NE2_32.inf
               .
               .


     . Shut down the system, add the network adapter, turn on the system.

     . Remove adapters from the Network control panel for any cards that
       are no longer in the system.

     . In "System Settings Change" window, select "No".

     . Continue to install NetWare Client 32.

     . Run the Client 32 install using SETUP.EXE
       ( Check the box to replace NDIS with ODI )
       ( The WIN95 CD will probably be required )

     . In "Select Device" windows, select "" for Manufacturers,
       and select proper model for your network adapter.

     . After installation completed, reboot the machine.

     . Watch WIN95 auto-detect the hardware. The correct new ODI driver
       should be installed.


   Case 2:

   Installing Network Adapter on WIN95 WITH Client 32

     . In Windows 95, change directory to the \Windows\INF.

     . Remove the old GFC2204.INF file (if it exists).

     . Create a temporary directory and copy all the files from the
       \Windows\INF directory to this temporary directory.

     . Verify that the copy completed properly and the two directories
       contain the same files.

     . Delete all the files (*.INF) in the \Windows\INF directory.

     . Copy the new GFC2204.INF into \Windows\INF directory.

     . Now copy all the files back from the temporary directory you created
       to the \Windows\INF\ directory.

     . GFC2204.INF should now be the first one Windows sees in the loading
       process, and be loaded before any others for the same adapter.

     . Remove any adapter from the Network Control Panel, including
       ODINSUP and any asscoiated files.

     . Shut down the system, install the network adapter and turn on the
       system.

     . Watch WIN95 auto-detect the hardware, and select correct new ODI
       driver to be installed. If not, you may select the "Have Disk"
       option for installation, in which case you will be prompted to
       input the path where the driver located:
          ex. A:\LANDRV32, if floppy disk is used.
              C:\CLIENT32, if hard disk is used.

       You will then be prompted for Client 32 diskettes.

     . Complete the Client 32 installation.
