Location of Driver: \NDIS\MSLANMAN.BAT
MSLANMAN.BAT will create the following directory structure on local hard
drive:
\MSLANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\ETHERNET\EPRO\EPRO.DOS (DOS NDIS driver)
\MSLANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\ETHERNET\EPRO\PROTOCOL.INI
\MSLANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\NIF\EPRODOS.NIF
\MSLANMAN.OS2\DRIVERS\ETHERNET\EPRO\EPRO.OS2 (OS/2 NDIS driver)
\MSLANMAN.OS2\DRIVERS\ETHERNET\EPRO\PROTOCOL.INI

Sample Configuration Files
--------------------------
CONFIG.SYS (for DOS will contain):
DEVICE=C:\LANMAN\PROTMAN.DOS /I:C:\LANMAN
DEVICE=C:\LANMAN\EPRO.DOS
CONFIG.SYS (for OS/2* will contain):
DEVICE=C:\LANMAN\PROTMAN.OS2 /I:C:\LANMAN
DEVICE=C:\LANMAN\EPRO.OS2
General Installation
--------------------
1 Run the appropriate Microsoft LAN Manager setup for the computer you
are setting up. (DOS, OS/2* or OS/2 Server). When prompted for the
LAN adapter driver, select Other Driver (the EtherExpress(TM) PRO/10
adapter driver isn't included on the LAN Manager disk) and insert the
disk you created with the PRO/10 drivers, select the EtherExpress
PRO/10 adapter driver and follow the directions.
2 When completed, reboot your computer for changes to take effect.
Hints and Tips
--------------
1 Parameters for the PROTOCOL.INI file
DRIVERNAME: (required) If you have a single adapter, use the syntax in
the example below. If you are installing multiple adapters, each
adapter must have a unique driver name. Additional instances of the
driver would be referenced by DRIVERNAME=EPROx$, where "x" would be a
unique number 2 through 9.
IOADDRESS: (optional for single adapter systems - except when set to
certain addresses noted below) This value must match the adapter's I/O
address. If the driver does not find the adapter at the specified I/O
address, it will scan most of the I/O addresses that the adapter could
be at and will load if it finds the adapter. The only addresses the
driver doesn't scan are 2E0, 2F0 or 370. If you have used one of these
address, this parameter isn't optional. If you use multiple adapters
in one machine, make sure you specify the correct IOADDRESS for each
board. Otherwise, the driver will fail when loading on the second
card.
NODE: (optional) (Syntax: NODE="12 Hexadecimal digits") This value
sets the adapter's Individual Address, overriding the value read from
the adapter's EEprom. The value must be exactly 12 hexadecimal
digits, enclosed in double quotes. The value can't be all zeros, nor
can it be a multicast address.
If you want information on advanced PROTOCOL.INI parameters, refer to
the NDIS Driver Notes document or obtain document 6341 on Intel's
automated services.
2 If you are having problems authenticating to a LAN Manager server, use
SoftSet2 to check if the PRO/10 is set to 8-bit mode. If it is, go to
Change Adapter Configuration, Advanced Options Menu and disable
Concurrent Processing.

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.
