To install 3Com 10/100 Mini PCI Ethernet adapter support

If your HP notebook contains a built-in 3Com 10/100 Mini PCI Ethernet adapter, you
need to install the LAN driver. If you use Suspend or Hibernate states while connected to
the LAN, then you also need to install the 3Com NT Power Management TDI service so
that the LAN connection will be restored upon resume (see "To install the 3Com Power
Management TDI service" on page 160.
The Advanced Power Management (APM) mobile enhancement for NT 4.0 AND

The LAN driver and Power Management TDI service are located in the LAN
subdirectory.
