3-6CHAPTER 3: INSTALLING THE NETWORK DRIVERS

Using Memory Management

If you are using Card and Socket Services, the program will default to Autoset mode, which allows the LAN driver to negotiate with Card and Socket Services for available resources. LANAID will allow you to select values for resources to be used by your 3C389 PC Card such as Interrupt, memory, and I/O Base Address.

If you are not using Card and Socket Services in Autoset mode, you must ensure that the values that you select for Interrupt, MMIO, and SRAM do not conflict with those for other PC Cards and resources installed in your PC (such as video, sound, COM port).

If you are using EMM386, in most cases the memory exclusions will be automatically handled by LANAID. If you are using a memory manager, you must exclude the memory ranges being used by your 3C389 PC Card (8-KB default).

The Microsoft Windows for Workgroups PC Card software installation is now complete.

Windows NT 3.51 Installation

The NDIS 3.0 device driver for Windows NT 3.51 or higher requires that Service Pack 2 or higher be installed with your Windows NT system. It will function only in a PC with an Intel 82365SL or compatible socket controller. Windows NT does not support the Databook socket controllers at this time. Check your PC user guide to determine which controller is in your PC.

Make sure that the 3C389 PC Card with cable attached is inserted before installing Windows NT.

1On the Windows NT desktop, open the program group Main.

2In the Main Window, double-click the Control Panel icon.
