Packet Driver Introduction: ------------- This document describes the procedure to setup the Packet driver for 10/100M PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter. Location of Driver: \SLPKT\SLPKT.COM Sample Configuration Files: --------------------------- AUTOEXEC.BAT SLPKT 0x60 Notes: ------ 1. Load the packet driver using the software interrupt and any optional switches if required. Usage: SLPKT [options] <packet_int_no> [-medium media type] [bus_no slot_no] Example: SLPKT -i 0x60 The only required parameter is the software interrupt. A packet driver needs to have a software interrupt assigned to it for other programs to access it. The recommended interrupt 0x60. If you need any of the options listed below, place them before the software interrupt on the command line. -i - Force driver to report itself as 802.3 instead of Ethernet II. -d - Delayed initialization. Used for diskless booting -n - NetWare conversion. Converts 802.3 packets into 8137 packets -w - Windows hack, obsoleted by winpkt -p - Promiscuous mode disable -h - Help -u - Uninstall 2. Media type can be used to force the card to work on specific speed and duplex mode. If no media type if specified, then driver will read hardware configuration from EEPROM on the card. 3. Type command,SLPKT 0x60, the screen will appear following message: Full Duplex Line Speed 100M System: [345]86 processor, PCI bus, Two 8259s Packet driver software interrupt is 0x60(96) Interrupt number 0xA(10) I/O port 0xD800(55296) My Ethernet address is 00:E0:20:31:03:02 4. Installing Multiple LAN Adapters: 4.1 The user can run SLPKT 0x60 directly, then the screen will display : Packet driver for SC92031 PCI/CARD bus Fast Ethernet Network Interface Cards, version 1.0 Copyright , Silan Semiconductor Inc There are 2 Network Cards on your main board : Card 1 BusNo=0x00 SlotNo=0x0A IRQ= 0xA I/O= 0xD800 NodeID= 00:E0:20:31:03:02 Card 2 BusNo=0x00 SlotNo=0x0B IRQ= 0x5 I/O= 0xDC00 NodeID= 00:E0:20:00:F0:8B Please select a card No: 1 4.11 The user just has to select one card from the list. After selecting Card 1, the screen will display: Half Duplex Line Speed 100M System: [345]86 processor, PCI bus, Two 8259s Packet driver software interrupt is 0x60(96) Interrupt number 0xA(10) I/O port is 0xD800 My Ethernet address is 00:E0:20:31:03:02 4.2 The user can use the bus_no and slot_no argument to specify the card that you want to select. If bus number is 0x00 and the slot number is 0x0B, you just has bo type SLPKT 0x60 0x00 0x0B in the command line to select this card directly without having to make selection as 4.1. 5. Installing multiple drivers: If you want to install multiple cards each connecting to different network, you have to install the driver multiple times, each with different packet interrupt number.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.
