If you are using Windows 3.1, you may want to use a high-
speed COMM driver instead of the standard COMM driver
shipped with Windows. (Do not make this change if you are
using Windows for Workgroups.) In your Windows SYSTEM.INI
file, replace the line in the [boot] section that reads

comm.drv=comm.drv

with

comm.drv=New High Speed Driver

Refer to your software vendor for a new high speed COMM
driver. This is optional and will allow your Serial Card to
perform reliably in Windows at higher speeds.

With your Serial Card inserted in a PCMCIA slot, it should now
be configured and set up each time you turn on or reboot your
PC. Note that since ENABLE.EXE is a Point Enabler, you will
need to re-run the ENABLE command line with the appropriate
switches each time your laptop goes to sleep or each time you
remove and re-insert the Serial Card.

Windows 9x Installation

To allow easy configuration of the 232HSPCC, a Windows 9x "INF"

configuration file has been included on the distribution diskette. This file
provides all of the setup information required by Windows 9x to allocate
resources for the card.

The 232HSPCC installation procedure differs slightly between

versions of Windows 9x. In either case, the first step is to supply
Windows 9x with the .inf configuration files supplied on the 232HSPCC
disk.

NOTE: The ENABLE.EXE program does not support all
PCMCIA controller types out on the market. It will work on all
controllers that are compatible with the Intel 82365 PCMCIA
controller.

NOTE: The IBM 360 and 755/755C do not allow the range
D000-D3FF to be used. We recommend using the range C800-
CBFF instead.
