      WINDOWS 95 AND MICROSOFT WINDOWS NETWORKING


This document describes how to configure the 3C562 card for 
use with Windows 95 and Microsoft Windows Networking. These
procedures are also described in the EtherLink III LAN +
Modem PC Card User Guide, Chapter 4, Setup for Windows 95.

NOTE: The following instructions assume that you have not
      installed any other network adapter in the machine. If you
      have been using a network connection on your computer,
      some of the following instructions may not apply or may
      produce different results. Refer to your MIS department
      or system manager for instructions.

Before installing the network driver, you should know the
following:

      The name of your Windows 95 workgroup or:
      The name of the NT Domain or NT Workgroup to which
      you belong

Also, for a successful installation, you will need:

      - Windows 95 system installation files (either on hard
        disk, floppy diskettes, or CD)
      - 3C562 LAN+Modem card and the accompanying EtherDisk
        diskette
        
SETTING UP THE LAN+MODEM CARD:

1.  Turn on the computer and start Windows 95.

2.  Insert the 3C562 Card in the system.

    If you see an "unknown device" message, go to the section
    below titled "Installing Networking."

3.  From the Control Panel, double click the PCMCIA icon. This
    opens the PC Card (PCMCIA) Wizard.

    At this point, the card wizard may ask whether you are
    using a PC Card to install windows. This question typically 
    has to do with whether you are using an external CD-Rom or
    floppy drive connected to the computer through a PC card.
    For this installation, the question probably does not apply.
    Click NEXT.

4.  The system asks if you are using Real Mode Drivers and
    whether to remove them. Select NO and click NEXT.

5.  Click FINISH. At the shutdown prompt, click YES to shut down
    the system. When shutdown is complete, restart the computer.

Installing Networking  

1.  When Windows 95 restarts, it will display a New Hardware
    Found dialog box and identify the 3Com Corporation-3C562
    card. Since the driver for the LAN+Modem card is not
    included with Windows 95, select: "Driver from disk
    provided by Hardware manufacturer" and click OK. 

2.  This opens the Install From Disk dialog box. Indicate the
    floppy drive you will be using, insert the EtherDisk, and
    click OK.

3.  When the system prompts for Location Information, enter the
    requested location information and click OK.

4.  When the system prompts for Computer Name and Group
    Name, type the names as supplied by your MIS department
    or system manager and click OK.

NOTE: The computer name and the workgroup name apply to
      Microsoft Networking, which is installed by default.

5.  As the system copies files, it may ask for additional diskettes.
    When finished, it prompts whether to restart. Remove the
    EtherDisk and click YES.

6.  When the system starts up again, you will be asked to enter
    a user name and password for Microsoft Networking. Type
    your name and password and click OK. When prompted to
    verify your password, retype it and click OK.

7.  You should now be able to see the Network Neighborhood 
    icon on your desktop. Double-click the icon to access the
    network.
