6The dialog box “Welcome to the PC Card (PCMCIA) Wizard” will ask the following question: “Are you using a PC card (networking card, CD-ROM connected to a SCSI card, etc.) to install windows?” The default answer is No. If you did use a PC Card SCSI adapter or a network card to install Windows 95, it is recommended that you keep a copy of the Windows 95 directory on your hard disk and not load any real mode PC Card or network drivers. Press Enter to select No.

7The dialog box “PC Card (PCMCIA) Wizard” should now appear. It should read as follows: “Windows did not find any existing real mode PC Card drivers. Either you did not have any, or you have drivers that Windows couldn’t detect.” It will ask you “Do you want to review your system files and select real mode PC Card drivers so Windows can disable them?” The default answer should be No. Now use the following decision table:

a If you are not sure if you have real mode Card and Socket Services or you do not know what they are, contact Microsoft Customer Support or the manufacturer of your notebook computer.

b If you know that you do not have real mode Card and Socket Services installed, choose No and press Enter. Go on to step 8.

c If you know that you have real mode Card and Socket Services and you wish to keep using them, this is not recommended. We recommend removing real mode drivers and using the 32-bit driver.

d If you know that you have real mode Card and Socket Services installed and Windows 95 either did or did not detect them, you can now remove. Choose Yes and press Enter.

eA new dialog box should appear and it should read: “Windows has selected the known PC Card drivers in your CONFIG.SYS file. Make sure that the correct drivers are selected, or make any changes. When you click Next, Windows will disable the selected PC card drivers in your CONFIG.SYS file.” Choose option 1, 2, or 3 below:

NOTE:

The dialog boxes displayed are the same except for the name of the file to be modified. The first box modifies the CONFIG.SYS, the next the AUTOEXEC.BAT and the third the SYSTEM.INI file.
