5.3 SETPCI Program

The SETPCI.EXE program is used to configure the PCI Card to function below and above one megabyte. This utility cannot be run under Windows 95/98/NT. It must be run from a DOS or Windows 95/98 boot disk.

After booting from a DOS or Windows boot disk, the program can be run by the following command line:

pciset.exe

The program will try to detect the presence of a PCI bios and the PCI Card. If found, the following menu will be displayed.
