Network Drivers Installation Notes
Windows for Workgroups v3.11 and Novell Netware
This document describes how to configure the 3C574
card for use with Windows for Workgroups v3.11 and
Novell NetWare.
NOTE: The following instructions assume that you have
not installed any other network adapter in the
machine. If you have been using a network connection
on your computer, some of the following instructions
may not apply or may produce different results. Refer
to your MIS department or system manager for further
instructions.
Before installing the network driver, you should know
about the following:
- The Frame type used in the network (802.2 is the
default).
- The name of your Novell file server.
Also, for a successful installation, you will need:
- Novell NetWare VLM Client disks for DOS and
Windows
- LAN card and accompanying Installation disk
Installation Instructions:
1. Boot the system in DOS. If the system starts up in
windows, close Windows and exit to DOS.
2. Place the Novell VLM client disk #1 in the floppy
drive and type:
a:install <enter>
3. This opens the NetWare Client Installation window.
Use the arrow keys to move between fields.
Verify that the information on each line
is correct.
4. In the field asking you to select the driver for
your network card, press Enter to see the list of
support drivers. At the bottom of the list, select
OTHER DRIVERS and press <ENTER>.
5. At the prompt for a driver disk, put the
Installation disk in your floppy drive, enter
a:\nwclient and press Enter. Select FE574B-3Com
10/100 LAN PCCard-Fast Ethernet and press Enter.
6. Select the frame type by pressing Enter and
choosing the appropriate type from the list. After
your selection is made, press Enter again. You will
not need to select an "I/O Base", as the default is
appropriate for our drivers. Press <F10> to return
to the main installation screen.
7. To install the driver, select line 6 from this
screen and press <ENTER>. During the installation
process, you will be asked for specific floppy
diskettes. Follow the instructions on the screen.
When the installer finishes, press Enter.
8. Reboot the PC.
