82550 Network Driver Installation
A. Preparing Intel 82550 LAN Driver Diskette
Use a floppy disk to install the onboard Intel 82550 network adapter drivers with the
MAKEDISK.BAT utility located in the \Drivers\LAN\MAKEDISK directory in
ASUS Support CD.
MAKEDISK [operating system] [destination]
where [operating system] is the OS for which you are creating the diskette, and
[destination] is the drive letter and path (such as A:). If no destination is specified,
the A: drive will be used. The possible [operating system] options are:
NT = Microsoft Windows NT
W2K = Microsoft Windows* 2000
NW = Novell NetWare servers and clients
Make sure you have a 1.44 MB formatted, non-bootable diskette in the floppy drive
when using this utility. Alternately, you can use the MAKEW2K.BAT files (located
in the \Drivers\LAN\MAKEDISK directory on this CD) to simplify this process:
