storage. The installation program also adds commands to the
computer's AUTOEXEC.BAT file, so that each time the computer is
subsequently booted up (and you then make certain choices in the
startup menus, if any), the drivers and related modules are
automatically loaded into memory.
The "conflicting driver" problem now at hand arises because certain
commands already present in your notebook PC's AUTOEXEC.BAT
file are being executed during bootup, and are causing some kind of
previously installed network driver module to be loaded into
memory. The presence of that network driver in memory is now
making it impossible to load the DFE-660TX network driver
software (16-bit driver for DOS NetWare client).
So the fix is to delete from AUTOEXEC.BAT the line which is
causing the conflicting driver to be loaded. Thus we will avoid
loading of the conflicting driver when we next restart the notebook
PC. And the trick is to delete that line from AUTOEXEC.BAT
without deleting or changing anything which needs to remain
unchanged in AUTOEXEC.BAT (so that your notebook PC will
behave as you expect it to after each startup).
