Before you physically install the NIC in a Windows 95 or 98 PC, run the NIC preinstallation

Do not install the NIC in the PC.

2

Turn on the power to the PC and start Windows.

3

Quit any open applications and disable the automatic protection feature of any anti-
virus software that may be running.

4

Insert the 

EtherCD

 in the CD-ROM drive.

The 

EtherCD

 Welcome screen appears. If the 

EtherCD 

Welcome screen does not appear, 

enter the following command from the Run option of the Windows Start menu:

d:\installs\setup.exe

where d:\ represents the letter name of the CD-ROM drive.
