The following describes the options available from this screen:

1. Try automatic network adapter detection.

The program tries to identify the adapter card in the machine. If successful, the program asks you to confirm that the detected adapter is correct. The program then configures the diskettes for this adapter. This option only discovers the first network adapter in your machine. If you have multiple network adapters you may need to use option 2 or 3 to configure for a specific adapter.

2. Select your network adapter from a list.

You are presented with a list of adapter names. Find the number for the adapter in the list. Use the Page Up and Page Down keys on the keyboard to move through the list, and exit the list when done. Enter the number when the program prompts you. The program then configures the diskettes for this adapter.

3. Add your own network adapter device driver & NIF file.

Use this option when the diskettes do not contain a device driver for your network adapter card. See Adding Drivers for Network Adapters for more information.

4. Customize network adapter's operational parameters.

Use this option if you are very familiar with LAN adapter use and your local LAN environment. This option allows you to modify the protocol.ini file. See Customizing Parameters for a Network Adapter for more information.

5. Install PCMCIA support.

Use this option if you have a computer that uses PCMCIA adapters (such as a notebook computer). This option allows you to add support for them to the diskettes. See Adding Support for PCMCIA Adapters for more information.
