In addition to the basic drivers, more updated information and driv-

ers may be included in the driver media after this guide is published.

Please refer to the \README.DOC file first for the latest informa-

tion before you install any drivers.

4.2 BIOS Setup

Before installing the driver, it is recommended to run the system

BIOS setup utility to check each PCI slot that contains a Fast

Ethernet PCI adapter for the following PCI settings:

1. Enable/disable the PCI slot : make sure the PCI slot is enabled

for the adapter.

2. Assign an IRQ number : make sure the IRQ number does not

conflict with other add-in adapters.

3. Enable bus mastering : the PCI slot must be enabled for bus

mastering.

4. Enable the RWU or WOL function in BIOS, if it is available.

On a PCI plug-and-play system, the BIOS automatically configures

the adapter, so there is no user action needed.
