10If you have a single adapter installed, the Conﬁgure Adapter option appears already highlighted on the Install pull-down menu. Press [Enter].

A screen similar to the one shown in Figure 3-5 appears.

In the value set for the I/O Port Address parameter, the 1000 indicates slot number 1. A setting of 2000 would mean slot number 2; 3000, slot number 3, and so forth.

A second dialog box appears.

The Boot PROM, I/O Port Address, and Interrupt Level parameters are for information only.To change them, you must use the EISA conﬁguration utility that came with your computer.

12Use the arrow keys to scroll through the list of settings for that option. Select a setting and press [Enter].

13Continue this procedure with any of the other options.

Refer to the on-line help (press [F1] when the option is highlighted) for more information about each of the settings.

14Press [Tab] to highlight OK. Press [Enter].

You must highlight OK and press [Enter] to save the settings. If you want to use the same settings on other adapters, you can save the conﬁguration settings to a ﬁle. Select Save under File Options in the Adapter Conﬁguration dialog box. For example, type:

D:\CONFIG\3C592.SET

This saves the settings to the default ﬁle 3C592.SET in the CONFIG directory in drive D. Refer to the on-line help (press [F1]) for more information.
