7Edit the AUTOEXEC.BAT file and add the following lines:

C:\PCTCP\M32APD.COM

C:\PCTCP\ETHDRV.EXE

8(This step is not required for PC/TCP versions 2.10 and later.) Using a text editor, add the following lines to your CONFIG.SYS file:

DEVICE=[PATH]IPCUST.SYS

DEVICE=[PATH]IFCUST.SYS

where [path] is the drive and directory specified at the PC/TCP installation.

9Reboot the PC.

10Change to the directory where your PC/TCP files are stored and run M32APD.COM by typing: M32APD and pressing Enter.

11Run the ETHDRV.EXE kernel program supplied with PC/TCP. This loads the PC/TCP kernel into memory. The packet driver must always load before the kernel.

12Continue your server or workstation startup as instructed in the PC/ TCP documentation.
