Intel NuPRO-850 user manual LAN Driver Installation

4.2.2LAN Driver Installation

This section describes the LAN driver installation process for the Intel® 82547 Gigabit Ethernet controller under Windows 2000/XP. The Intel® software utilities package include Diagnostics utility; Makedisk utility; and 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet device drivers. All drivers and utilities are stored in the ADLINK CD under the directory: X:\NuPRO\NuPRO-850\LAN, where X: is the location of the CD-ROM drive. For driver installations of other OS, please refer to the readme file on the CD.

The installation procedures for Windows 2000/XP are the same. During Windows 2000/XP installation, the operating system will install a LAN driver automatically. It is recommended that the most updated LAN driver be installed, which is shipped with the ADLINK CD. This will ensure total compatibility. After installing the OS, update to the newer driver by following these steps:

1.Run the self-extracting pro2kxpm.exe file. The extracted files are stored to the default location C:\IntelPRO.

2.To install or update the Ethernet drivers for the system, click ‘Install Now’. All Ethernet devices on the computer will be updated.

3.Reboot the system for the new drivers to take effect.

Note:	To check if	there are	newer updates of the drive, it is
	recommended	that	the	following	website

	checked out on a regular basis.
