3.1 What You Need
to Know About
Windows
98/Me/2000
Although similar in appearance, Windows 98/Me/2000 have different philosophies when
installing a new hardware.
Throughout this section it is assumed that you have a basic working knowledge of Windows
98/Me/2000 and of how to install new network cards on them. However, in this
paragraph, some specific features of Windows 98/Me/2000 are briefly explained.
Windows 98/Me/2000 operating system supports the “Plug & Play” feature. That means
that once you plug the Fast-VNET card for the very first time, the operating system will
detect the card and automatically install the driver assuming that you have already
installed the application utility.
Another feature is the “Hot Swapping”. With this feature, you can unplug and plug again
the card whenever you want.
3.2 What You Will
Need
During the installation, you may be prompted to load operating system files from the
Windows installation disk. Please have this disk handy.
You will need the Firmware and Software Tools CD provided with your Evaluation Kit.
Note: In order to be able to install the Fast-VNET card on to your PC running under
Windows 2000, you will need to log on as “Administrator”.
3.3 Installing the
Application and
Drivers Under
Windows
98/Me/2000
Note: Please do not plug your PCMCIA card until the Application setup has been
completed. The setup procedure described below installs the drivers, the
Configuration & Monitor Utility and the Firmware Upgrade Utility.

“Application, PCMCIA & USB Drivers” option.
