This release CD can be used for the following Fast Ethernet Controller
Provider Ethernet adapters:
FastNIC Adapter (ADMtek AN983B)
Install LAN driver
--------------------
Follow the step by step instructions to complete the installation.
drivers path : \NDIS5
LAN Diagnostic
----------------
Run the diagnostic program found in the CD (\NDIS5\NICDIAG.EXE). If a problem
arises during the installation, contact your dealer or
Fast Ethernet Controller Provider Inc. for support.
Conflict with Microsoft EMM386
------------------------------
The PCI adapters can only function with the EMM386.exe memory manager
program version 4.49 or later. You can verify its version number by
entering EMM386 at the DOS Prompt.
Do not specify the "highscan" option with the EMM386.exe statement in your
config.sys file, or your system will hang.
If you run MEMMAKER and select Custom Setup, do not specify "Aggressively
scan upper memory", or it will automatically insert the HIGHSCAN flag into
the EMM386 command line. This parameter cannot be manually removed once
it is installed, doing so will prevent the extended memory manager to
function properly.
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.
