Windows 98 detects the NIC. The Insert Disk dialog box
appears, prompting you to insert the EtherCD.
You must restart the PC to complete the installation.
After Windows restarts, double-click the Network icon
in the Windows Control Panel and make sure that
the correct configuration settings are selected for your
network environment. Contact your system administrator
for assistance.
If the Add New Hardware Wizard starts, the NIC
preinstallation program was not run on the PC. Follow
the instructions in the WIN98.TXT file located in the
