Loading Windows 95 Drivers

If you have Windows 95 running on your computer, you must load the driver from the EtherDisk diskette. Follow these steps:

1After inserting the Fast EtherLink EISA adapter, connecting it to the network, and running the configuration utility program, reboot your computer.

Windows 95 will notify you that new hardware has been found and is located in slot number “X.”

2Select the following option when prompted to select the driver you want to install for your new hardware:

Driver from disk by hardware manufacturer

3Click OK.

4You are prompted to insert the manufacturer’s disk into the drive selected:

a Insert the EtherDisk diskette.

bIn the panel at the bottom of the dialog box, type the drive name and filename from which Windows 95 should copy the manufacturer’s files.

(An information file on the diskette tells Windows 95 where to find the information it needs, for example A:\.)

5Click OK.

This imports the driver from the EtherDisk diskette.

For on-line help information about any of the fields in the Windows 95 display boxes, click the question mark (?) in the upper right corner of the box, move the question mark cursor to the field of interest, and click again.
