Before installing the network adapter:
• If your OS is Windows 95 SR2.5, go into the BIOS setup and set PnP OS
field to YES.
• If your OS is Windows NT 4.0, go into the BIOS setup and set PnP OS field
to NO.
• If your OS is Windows 98 2nd edition, go into the BIOS setup and set PnP
OS field to YES.
• If your OS is Windows for Workgroup 3.11, go into the BIOS setup and set
PnP OS field to NO.
How to Forcibly Modify Resources Allocated to the 3COM EtherLink
III 3C509B adapter:
Do this only if needed and only if you are an advanced user.
• Under BIOS setup, go to Advanced > ISA IRQ Resource Exclusion > re-
serve an IRQ for the adapter.
• Start the configuration tool, 3C5X9CFG.EXE, provided in driver kit (see
install documentation). Using the utility, disable the adapter’s Plug and
Play capability then change the I/O Base Address and IRQ (This IRQ is the
same as the one reserved under the BIOS setup).
