IMPORTANT:

In order to use the QSP-100 Enabler for DOS, the system MUST
NOT be configured with Card and Socket Services software. If a
Card and Socket Services software is installed, the QSP-100
Enabler may interfere with its operation and with the device(s) it
controls.

The QSP-100 Enabler does not support automatic configuration of adapters upon insertion, more
commonly referred to as "Hot Swapping". This means the adapter must be installed in one of the
system's PCMCIA sockets before executing QSP100EN.EXE. If more than one adapter is
installed in a system, the Enabler must be executed separately for each adapter. Furthermore,
QSP100EN.EXE should be executed to release the resources used by the adapter before it is
removed from the PCMCIA socket. Since PCMCIA adapters do not retain their configuration
after removal, any adapter that is removed from the system must be re-configured with the
Enabler after re-inserting it into a PCMCIA socket.

IMPORTANT:

The Enabler requires a region of high DOS memory when configuring
a QSP-100. This region is 1000H bytes (4KB) long and by default
begins at address D0000H (the default address may be changed using
the "W" option). If a memory manager such as EMM386, QEMM, or
386Max is installed on the system, this region of DOS memory must
be excluded from the memory manager's control. Consult the
documentation provided with the memory manager software for
instructions on how to exclude this memory region.
