This chapter describes how to install and configure network
drivers for the EtherPower II 10/100 network card. The drivers for
this EtherPower II 10/100 network card are not compatible with
those on previous SuperDisks — even if the previous drivers
were designed for other SMC Fast Ethernet network cards (Models
SMC9332DST, SMC9332BDT, SMC9332BVT). Therefore, use only
the drivers on the SuperDisk supplied with this network card.

Windows 95/98 Installation

1. If Windows 95/98 is already installed on your computer,

proceed to Step 2. Otherwise, complete a first-time Windows
95/98 installation without the SMC network card installed.

2. Shut down your PC, install the SMC network card, and attach

network cable.

3. Restart Windows 95/98. Make sure you have your Windows

95/98 CD available (or you are aware of the path to those files
on your hard drive).

4. A “New Hardware Found” window appears and asks you to

select a driver to install. Select “Driver from disk provided by
manufacturer” and click on “OK”.

Note: The installation procedure for users of Windows 95 OEM

Service Release 2 and Windows 98 may be slightly
different than that described here. Refer to the Windows
95/98 driver installation document on the SMC SuperDisk
for more information.

5. The “Install From Disk” window appears. Insert the SMC

SuperDisk, specify the path to the root of the disk, and click on
“OK”.
