Installing Network Drivers; Location Of Drivers - 3Com 3C905-TX User Manual

3
This chapter describes how to install the network driver required
to let the Fast EtherLink PCI adapter operate with your network
operating system. If you are using Novell
or 4.x, you can use 3Com' s AutoLink auto installation feature,
which automatically installs all the NetWare DOS ODI client
software, including drivers. If you are using any other network
operating system, follow the driver installation instructions in the
section "Installing Non-NetWare Drivers" later in this chapter.
For additional information when using the menu screens,
press [F1] to access Help.
When the PCI adapter is installed in some PCI computers with
EISA slots, you must run the EISA configuration utility.

Location of Drivers

The 3C59X EtherDisk diskette contains the latest versions of the
network drivers available when 3Com shipped the adapter.
The diskette also contains other important information about
the adapter.
The drivers on the 3C59X EtherDisk diskette are compatible
with the following bus master adapters: Fast EtherLink PCI
10/100BASE-TX (3C595) adapter and EtherLink III PCI 10 Mbps
adapters (3C590). The 3C59X driver is not compatible with
non-bus mastering 3Com adapters (for example, 3C509B).
To obtain network operating system drivers not included on the
EtherDisk diskette, contact the manufacturer of that network
operating system or application. To obtain driver updates and
patches for software on the 3C59X EtherDisk diskette, use one of
the bulletin board services listed in Appendix C, "Technical
Support." For example, Document 9071 in 3Com' s CardFacts
fax service contains a list of all available drivers.
