Checking Your Network Protocols (Windows 9x)

Your computer must have either TCP/IP or NetBEUI protocols installed. All versions of Windows after Windows 95 already have TCP/IP installed by default. You must verify that the desired protocols are available, as follows:

1From your computer, click Start > Settings > Control Panel > Network. You should see a window similar to the following:

The top line in the list (NetBEUI -> PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter) indicates that the NetBEUI protocol is installed on this computer. Your computer will show the name of your Network card rather than "PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter".

The highlighted line (TCP/IP -> PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter) indicates that TCP/IP is installed. Your computer will show the name of your Network card rather than "PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter".

2If neither protocol is present:

Install the NetBEUI protocol by selecting Add > Protocol > Microsoft > NetBEUI > OK. You may be prompted for your Windows CD-ROM.

If required, you can also install TCP/IP. However, depending on your LAN environment, TCP/IP may require further configuration.

3If either protocol is already installed, proceed with installation.
