4-52 PRO/100 LAN+Modem PC Card User’s Guide
After the driver has been successfully loaded, the memory exclusion may
be reduced through trial and error or in accordance with the Card and
Socket Services documentation. The system must be rebooted before the
revised settings take effect.
B. When the PRO/100 PC Card driver is loaded it either reads a configu-
ration file or uses command line parameters to determine which resources
it should use. The following is a list of driver types, driver file names, and
the configuration method used by each:
Type File Name Configuration Method
ODI M16BODI.COM reads NET.CFG configuration file
NDIS2 M16BNDIS.EXE reads PROTOCOL.INI configuration file
Packet M16BPD.EXE uses COMMAND LINE parameters
Test M16BTEST.EXE uses COMMAND LINE parameters
C. Card and Socket Services will generally try to assign a set of resources
(interrupt, memory window, I/O window) to the PRO/100 PC Card. The
resources configured for the PRO/100 PC Card (in a configuration file or
on a command line) must match the resources assigned by Card and
Socket Services. If they do not, the driver will generally fail to load.
The way resources are assigned to the PC Card varies among Card and
Socket Services manufacturers. The following section provides guidelines
for the most popular Card and Socket Services. Review your Card and
Socket Services documentation. To use Card and Socket Services with the
PRO/100 PC Card, you must know what resources will be assigned by
Card and Socket Services, then specify the same resources when configur-
ing the PRO/100.
