  BEFORE YOU BEGIN
  --------------------------------------------------------------------------
  If your computer does NOT have a plug-and-play motherboard, 
  the following notes apply to you:

  1.  Before attempting to install the Ether16 LAN Card's network
      software drivers, you MUST configure the card's internal
      settings with the SETUP program included on Ether16 disk 1
      under the UTILITY directory.  Use the program to set the
      card's interrupt (IRQ) and I/O settings.  For directions
      on using SETUP, see your Ether16 user guide.
  
  2.  Most network software packages like Windows 95, Windows NT,
      Novell NetWare, etc., include a "generic" network driver
      that will work with a wide range of network cards.  This
      generic driver is called a "Novell NE2000" compatible driver,
      and it is fully supported by the Ether16 card.  If your 
      network software package asks you to choose the name of
      the network card you're installing from a list of available
      adapters, and you find "NE2000" or "Novell NE2000" listed,
      you don't need to follow the directions below---simply choose
      to install the NE2000 driver and the Ether16 Card will be
      ready for use.  THE ETHER16 IS ONLY NE2000 COMPATIBLE
      WHEN THE CARD'S PLUG-AND-PLAY MODE IS TURNED OFF.  If 
      your PC has a plug-and-play motherboard, and you wish to 
      use the generic NE2000 driver, you must run the Ether16 
      SETUP program and turn the card's plug-and-play mode off.

    Install the Windows for Workgroups software
    as usual.  When asked for the name of the 
    driver or network adapter to install, choose
    UNLISTED OR UPDATED from list of available
    adapters.  Insert Ether16 LAN Card disk 1
    into drive A and type:

        a:\wfw311
    
     Windows for Workgroups will check whether or not the OEMSETUP.INF
      file exists in the specified path. If the file exists, Windows for
      Workgroups will then copy the appropriate drivers into the Windows
      for Workgroups system.

      Follow the directions that appear on your screen.  The setup    
      is complete.
