INSTALL THE WINDOWS 98 DRIVERS

This guide provides instructions for installing the Windows 98 network driver. Since all versions of Windows may not respond similarly, your computer screen may display different information, in a differ- ent order, than pictured in the following instructions. This procedure works for the FA311.

Note: You must install the network card (instructions on the other side of this guide) before installing the network driver.

You need to have the Windows 98 CD-ROM disc and the Model FA311 Drivers and Diagnostics floppy disk ready to use in the installation process.

Note: If the “Insert Disk” window opens and a message prompts you to insert your disk at any time during the installation process, insert the Windows CD in Drive D (the CD drive) and click on “OK.” Then follow the next step in the instructions.

1.Turn on the power to the computer and start Windows. The new Hardware is found.

2.In the first “Add New Hardware Wizard” dialog box that indicates a PCI Ethernet Controller is found, click on “Next.”

3.Select “Search for the best driver…” Click on “Next.”
