Overview

The installation of the Network PC Card is different for users of Windows NT
because it is not a Plug-and-Play (PnP) system. This means it will not auto-
matically detect the presence of the Card when it is inserted. Consequently, the
order of the installation is different. The steps involved in the installation are
different, as well. If you are using any other operating system than Windows
NT, stop here and refer to the section called Installing the Drivers and
Configuration Utility for Windows 95, 98, ME, and 2000.
