if Dell shipped a card with the C/Dock Expansion
Station.
NOTE: If you are installing network drivers for a
Token-Ring PCI card, connect the computer to the
network before installing the drivers. Alert your net­
work administrator before connecting the C/Dock
Expansion Station to a network.
If you are using a PCI card that was not purchased
from Dell, use the drivers and instructions that
accompany that card.
NOTE: The PCI Token-Ring network card that Dell
installed has been tested for use with the C/Dock
Expansion Station. Although you can install other
PCI expansion cards, Dell does not guarantee their
functionality.
If you install a PCI video card in the C/Dock Expan­
sion Station, connect an external monitor to the
video port on the PCI card.
Token-Ring Network Driver
The computer must be docked and connected to the net­
work before you begin to install the IBM Token-Ring
network driver.
To install the Token-Ring network driver, use the instruc­
tions in Chapter 3, “Software Installation” of the IBM
PCI Token-Ring Adapter Installation and Testing Instruc­
tions that came with the C/Dock Expansion Station.

tery from the Dell Latitude portable computer in
