If you are installing the software on a computer that does not have a CD-ROM
drive, or if you choose to install the drivers manually, you will have to make
diskettes from the 3Com CD. The setup application includes Disk Factory, a utility
for creating disks from CD. To use disk factory, you need access to a computer
with a CD-ROM drive and a floppy drive and eight or more diskettes. Make sure
you have enough diskettes on hand.
1 For the driver software, prepare two diskettes labeled NT Drivers and 9X2K Driver.
For the application software, label diskettes numerically (Disk 1, Disk 2, Disk 3...).
2 Put the 3Com CD in the CD-ROM drive. The setup program should start
automatically. If it does not start, run it manually by selecting Run from the Start
menu and specifying the srsetup.exe program (for example, d:\srsetup.exe).
3 In the 3Com 11 Mbps Wireless LAN menu, click Tools and Utilities.
4 In the Tools and Utilities menu, click Create Installation Diskettes.
5 In the Disk Factory window, click Next.
6 Select the software you want to transfer to diskette. The Disk Factory displays the
required number of diskettes. Make sure you have that number of diskettes.
7 Select the action (for example, Create and Verify Disks), specify the destination
location, and click Next.
Follow the prompts on the screen.
To install the drivers from diskette, use the driver diskettes when the setup wizard
prompts for drivers supplied by the manufacturer.
To install the application software from diskette, put application software Disk 1 in
the floppy drive and run the setup.exe program.
1 Turn on the computer.
2 Align the card with the computer PC Card slot. Insert the card and make sure it
seats snugly.
3 Gently but firmly press and release the XJACK antenna to extend it.
CAUTION: Forcing the card into the slot can damage the computer or the card.
