   CARDOPEN.EXE is the PCMCIA Fast Ethernet PC Card enabler program. You
   have to run CARDOPEN.EXE to enable the PCMCIA Fast Ethernet PC Card before
   loading any of the MS-DOS drivers such as the DOS ODI driver, the NDIS2
   driver, or the packet driver.

   To use adapter in a Netware Server environment, you also have
   to run CARDOPEN.EXE under MS-DOS before starting the Netware Server.
   If you neglect this step, the server driver will not work.

   To use adapter in the Microsoft Windows 95, Windows 98, or the
   Windows NT environment, there is no need to run CARDOPEN.EXE.

   You can run CARDOPEN.EXE from the DOS prompt, or to install
   CARDOPEN.EXE as a DOS device driver in CONFIG.SYS.  To use
   CARDOPEN.EXE with the NDIS2 driver, you have to install CARDOPEN.EXE
   as a DOS device driver.  To use CARDOPEN.EXE with other drivers, you
   can choose the way that is more convenient.

   The syntax to run CARDOPEN from the command line:

         CARDOPEN [/IRQ:x][/IOP:xxx]

   The syntax to load CARDOPEN in CONFIG.SYS:

         DEVICE=C:\path\CARDOPEN [/IRQ:x][/IOP:xxx]

       * IRQ - interrupt (IRQ) number to be used by PC Card.
               This number must not be in use by any other device
               in the system.

       * IOP - Starting I/O port address in hexadecimal format.
               PC Card requires 32 consecutive free I/O port
               addresses, and these set of addresses cannot be used
               by any other device in the system.

         The default value for IRQ is 3.  The default value for IOP is
         300 (hexadecimal).

   Example:  The following command enables PC Card with IRQ 5 and
             I/O port address 300:

            CARDOPEN /IRQ:5 /IOP:300

      If you installed EMM386.EXE in CONFIG.SYS, please exclude memory
      address range D000-DFFF or D400-D7FF from EMM386.EXE.  CARDOPEN.EXE
      uses this space to read configuration information from the adapter.

      [Example]
           DEVICE=EMM386.EXE NOEMS X=D000-DFFF
