DOS & Windows 3.x Installation
1. With the power turned off, insert the Quattro-PCI card into any free
PCI slot in your PC. Turn your PC on. Boot to DOS.
2. Place the Quattro-PCI installation diskette into your floppy drive. In
the Win3.11 subdirectory of this diskette you will find a file called
“Lavaconf.exe”. Copy this file to your hard drive and run it.
3. When run, Lavaconf.exe will display four I/O addresses and one IRQ.
These correspond to the addresses and IRQ chosen by your PC when
configuring the Quattro-PCI. Make a note of them.
4. If you are using Windows 3.x, start Windows and go to Control Panel
| Ports. Choose Com 3 for Port A and Com 4 for Port B on the
Quattro-PCI. Click the Advanced button and enter the I/O address
and IRQ for each port as reported by Lavaconf.exe. Reboot your PC
for these changes to take effect.
Note: Native DOS and Windows 3.X support a maximum of four Com
ports in a PC. If you wish to use all four ports on the Quattro-PCI, you
must disable the existing ports on your motherboard.
