Use the procedures described in this chapter to install the AirConnect wireless PC
Card software and drivers under Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 2000, and
Windows Millennium Edition (Windows Me).
The following paragraphs described special considerations for particular operating
systems.
Installation under Windows 98 may result in a fatal error caused by the
I
UHCD.SYS file in the Windows 98 operating system. To avoid this problem, you
should update the UHCD.SYS file from v4.10.1998 to v4.10.2000. This update
is available from the following web site:

Note that the final Windows 98 installation screen may take 30-60 seconds to
I
appear. Do not interrupt the installation if the PC appears to be taking too
much time to complete the installation.
Windows 95 users should note that the AirConnect wireless PC Card runs under
Windows 95 version B (OSR 2) or higher. If you do not know which version of
Windows 95 is installed on your computer, follow these steps:
1 In the Control Panel, double-click System to display the System Properties dialog
box.
2 Click the General Tab to display the Windows 95 version information.
Version B (also known as OSR 2) is identified as 4.00.950b.

in "Installing Windows NT Drivers" on page 8.
