3 DOS / Windows 3.x Software Installation

Two DOS configuration software programs are provided with the MPAP-100: a client driver and a card enabler. These programs are executed from DOS (before entering Windows) and allow operation of the MPAP-100 in both the DOS and Windows 3.x environments. Table 1 highlights the differences between these programs.

Table 1 --- Client driver versus enabler for DOS/Windows 3.x.

IMPORTANT

Do not use both the client driver and the enabler!

If you are unsure whether Card and Socket Services software is currently installed on your system, install the client driver. When loaded, the client driver will display an error message if Card and Socket Services software is not detected. If you receive such an error message, remove the client driver software and install the enabler instead.
