ACPI Remote Wake-Up Support

The

3Com TokenLink Velocity XL PCI Network Interface

Card User Guide

states that the 3C359B NIC Remote

Wake-Up support conforms to the Advanced Conﬁguration

and Power Interface (ACPI) speciﬁcation.

While the 3C359B NIC supports Remote Wake-Up in PCs

equipped with a Remote Wake-Up connector on the PC

motherboard, the NIC does not currently support

ACPI-enabled Remote Wake-Up.

To use Remote Wake-Up, use the 3-wire cable (supplied

with the NIC) to connect the NIC to the motherboard as

described in Chapter 2, “Installing the 3C359B NIC,” in the

user guide.

Windows 95 Version 950 (Retail) Driver Installation

Use the following instructions to install the 3C359B NIC in

a PC running Microsoft Windows 95 release version 950

(also known as version 950a, OSR1, or the Windows 95

“retail” version).

Windows 95 version 950 requires that the NDIS 3 driver be

loaded for the 3C359B NIC. The instructions in this section

replace those shown in the

3Com TokenLink Velocity XL PCI

Network Interface Card User Guide

for installing the NDIS 3

driver from the

TokenDisk

diskette or the

TokenLink

Velocity XL

CD.

Installing the NDIS 3 Driver

To install the NDIS 3 driver for the 3C359B NIC, you must

specify the complete path to the driver ﬁle on the

TokenDisk

diskette or

TokenLink Velocity XL

CD.

First, install the NIC and turn on the PC as described in the

user guide. After selecting

Driver from disk provided by

hardware manufacturer

in the New Hardware Found

window, continue by following these steps:

1 If you are using the 3.5-inch diskettes, insert

TokenDisk

diskette 2 in the drive. If you are using the

TokenLink Velocity XL

CD, insert it in the CD-ROM

drive.

2 At the prompt, enter the appropriate path for the

drive containing your

TokenDisk

diskette or

TokenLink Velocity XL

CD and the NDIS 3 driver.

■

If you are using the 3.5-inch

TokenDisk

diskettes, enter:

a:\nt351

■

If you are using the

TokenLink Velocity XL

CD, substitute

the appropriate drive (drive D, for example) and the

DISK_2 designation in the path as follows:

d:\disk_2\nt351

3 Click

Continue with the driver installation instructions as

presented in the user guide.

If Your PC Mouse Halts

Uninstalling the Wrong Driver

If you do not enter the full path for the NDIS 3 driver as

described in the preceding section, it is possible that the

wrong driver (NDIS 4 or NDIS 5) may be loaded. In this

case, you must uninstall the incorrect driver before

installing the NDIS 3 driver. Follow these steps:

1 Delete the .INF ﬁle from the WINDOWS\INF directory.

■

If the NDIS 4 driver is installed, delete NET3COMT.INF

from the WINDOWS\INF directory.

■

If the NDIS 5 driver is installed, delete W983C359.INF

from the WINDOWS\INF directory.

2 Delete the driver from the Device Manager.

3 Reboot and install the correct driver using the

instructions in “Installing the NDIS 3 Driver.”

If Your PC Mouse Halts

Your PC mouse (pointing device) may freeze periodically if

the 3C359B NIC is not connected to a hub or a switch. To

correct this problem, connect the NIC to a hub or a switch.
