5-2 C HAPTER 5: C ONFIGURING THE NIC M ANUALLY
Before Using the Configuration and Diagnostic Program
To configure the 3C319 NIC, the NIC must be already
installed in your PC and connected to the network, as
described in
Chapter 2 .
The Configuration and Diagnostic Program is a DOS
application that will not function properly if the 3C319
drivers are already installed.
The Configuration and Diagnostic Program indicates
memory conflicts if you run it with a memory manager
without excluding the memory range used by the
3C319 NIC. Before you run the Configuration and
Diagnostic Program, you must bypass the drivers and
the /memory manager. Use a DOS diskette if you are
running DOS 5.0 or earlier.
If you are running Windows NT, perform a clean boot
from the DOS partition, or boot from a DOS diskette to
run the diagnostic program. If you use Windows 95 or
Windows for Workgroups, exit Windows and restart the
PC in MS-DOS mode, or boot from a floppy that has the
operating system installed on it.
Configuring the 3C319 NIC in a PC Without PnP Support
Before starting, make sure that you have performed
a clean DOS boot according to the instructions in the

Diagnostic Program .” To configure the 3C319 NIC in a PC
without PnP support, follow these steps:
1 Insert TokenDisk diskette #1 in a floppy drive (for
example, the A drive) on your PC, and at the DOS
prompt type:
a: [Enter]
2 At the prompt, type:

The first time you use the installation software, a
software license screen appears.
