Updating the Current NDIS Driver

If you are updating an existing NDIS driver (rather than installing one for the first time), follow these steps:

1From the main menu, select Network Drivers and press [Enter].

2Select NDIS Driver Installation and Information.

3Select Update NDIS Driver and press [Enter].

This option will update your current driver to the latest version. The NDIS 2.01 drivers are TLNK3.DOS and TLNK3.OS2.

4Exit the program and remove the TokenDisk diskette.

5Reboot your PC.

This completes the procedure for updating the NDIS 2.01 drivers.

Using IBM Drivers

The 3C619C adapter is fully IBM-compatible. Because of this, the 3C619C adapter can use the same drivers as IBM 16/4 Token Ring Adapters.

Obtaining IBM Network Drivers

Obtain IBM token ring drivers for the 3C619C adapter in one of the following ways:

Copy IBM 16/4 Token Ring Adapter drivers supplied with your network operating system.

Use the Remote Program Load (RPL) program to download IBM drivers from the network. Follow the procedures described in the next section, “Using Remote Program Load (RPL).”

Use the IBM 16/4 Token Ring Adapter drivers that accompany the latest version of IBM’s LAN Support Program.

With IBM drivers, use only IBM mode settings.
