+----------------------------------------------------------+ | IBM Auto 16/4 Token-Ring ISA Adapter Device Driver | | Installation instructions for Microsoft Windows NT (TM) | +----------------------------------------------------------+ 1.0 PHYSICAL INSTALLATION The IBM Auto 16/4 Token-Ring ISA adapter must be physically installed and configured before you begin the driver installation. If you have not already installed the adapter, please refer to the product documentation that was shipped with it. 2.0 DRIVER INSTALLATION The general procedure for installing network device drivers for Windows NT is documented in the Microsoft Windows NT System Guide (Document No. 36327-0593), chapter 5. The main points are summarized below: 2.1 Log on as an administrator In order to make changes to the network, you need to be logged on as a member of the administrator group for your computer. 2.2 Select the Main program group After you log on to Windows NT, you should see several program group icons in the Program Manager window. Select the Main program group by double clicking it with the left mouse button. 2.3 Select the Control Panel application Double click on the Control Panel icon. If for some reason the Control Panel icon is missing, you can enter "control" on a command line to initiate the program directly. You can get a command line prompt by selecting the MS DOS Command Prompt icon. 2.4 Select the Network application Once the Control Panel window is displayed, select the Network application. You should then see a Network Settings window having the following buttons: Change (Computer Name) Change (Workgroup) Add Software Add Adapter Configure Update Remove OK Close Bindings Networks Help There should be two list boxes displayed in the lower left of the window. The one on the top is labeled "Installed Network Software" and the one on the bottom is labeled "Installed Adapter Cards". The bottom one is the only one you will be concerned with. When you are done with installation, this list box should contain entries for the adapters you have installed. 2.5 Click on Add Adapter When you are ready to begin, click on the "Add Adapter ..." button (NOT "Add Software ..."). You should see the message "Setup is preparing network card choices ..." displayed in a window. This may take 10 to 30 seconds, depending on your configuration. 2.6 Select "OTHER" After the setup program has located all network card choices, it will display a window with the title "Add Network Adapter". In this window, you should see a combo box with a number of manufacturers names. Click on the down arrow to browse the list. The last selection should be " Requires disk from manufacturer". Click on this selection to highlight it then click on the "CONTINUE" button. 2.7 Insert the diskette in the A: drive You should next see a window with the title "Insert Diskette". Put the IBM Auto 16/4 Token-Ring ISA Adapter Device Driver installation diskette in the A: drive. The entry field should already be filled in. If it is not, enter "A:\". When you are ready, click on the "OK" button. 2.8 Select "IBM Auto 16/4 Token-Ring ISA Adapter" software When this "Select OEM Option" window is displayed, you should see one selection in the list box, "IBM Auto 16/4 Token-Ring ISA Adapter". Click on the "OK" button. You should next see several work-in-progress windows that indicate that the driver and its supporting files are being copied to your computer's hard disk. This should take about 10 - 20 seconds. The file that is installed should be: IBMTOK4.SYS 2.9 Enter configuration parameters The next window you see will be a dialog box prompting you for the network address. If you will be using a locally administered address, enter it in this field. If you do not enter a network address, the driver will use the burned-in address from the adapter. When you are finished examining or modifying the parameter values, click on the OK button. 2.10 Click on OK in Network Settings You should see the Network Settings panel again. This time, there should be an entry for the adapter you just added in the "Installed Adapter Cards" list box. IMPORTANT: You must click on the OK button at the top right of this window to complete the installation. After you click on OK, you should shortly see a message that indicates you need to shut down and reboot. By responding "YES" to this message, Windows NT will automatically shut down and reboot for you. When the system comes back up, you should be able to log on and use the IBM Auto 16/4 Token-Ring ISA adapter. *** Trademarks IBM and IBM Auto 16/4 Token-Ring ISA are trademarks of the IBM Corporation in the United States and/or other countries.
