17. Select Continue.
18. On the next screen IBM EtherJet PC Card Setup set the appropriate settings for your adapter. An example of some resource settings are (note: these settings are just an example based on a default configuration.

I/O Port Address: 0x300
IRQ Level: 9
Duplex Option: HDX
19. Select Continue.
20. Select Continue leaving the NetAddr blank.
21. Check with your network administrator to see if you should enable DHCP.
22. The system might prompt you to insert the EtherJet PC Card Device driver diskette once more. If this is the case insert diskette 1 and select OK.
Windows NT will begin configuring bindings, prompt the user for network information, and launch the Microsoft TCP/IP Properties window.
23. You will be prompted to enter your IP address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, etc. depending on the protocols you selected earlier. Enter your network information here. If you do not know these then you will need to contact your network administrator who controls the network you are attaching to for that information.
24. Select OK after all entries have been made.
25. At the bindings window, you will want to check with your network administrator to determine your binding order. After doing so, select Next to continue.
26. Select Next to start the network.
The next window prompts you to participate in a workgroup or a domain. Again, check with your network administrator for the proper setting.
Select Next to accept the services defaults.
The next window prompts you to participate in a workgroup or a domain. Using the Identification tab verify that the information is correct.
27. Select Next, then Finish.
28. Remove the diskette and CD-ROM from the drives, then select Yes to restart the computer.
29. When the system restart you will receive a PC Card insertion notification from CardWizard.
30. If you receive the following error messages follow the suggestions provided to correct the problem:
TrackPoint Error:
Press OK. This error indicates the TrackPoint device driver is corrupt. This is not a critical error, however to fix the problem simply reinstall the TrackPoint device driver.
Service Control Manager Error:
This problem will occur if Windows NT is installed and the latest Service Pack is installed before the network card is installed. If Srv.sys is not present when the Service Pack is applied it will not be updated because Update.exe will only update components that are installed on the Windows NT system. When Windows NT starts up after the network card has been installed, Windows NT SRV.SYS is being used. To correctly work with the rest of the updated system files, the Server service must be updated to the same version as the installed Service Pack. The resolution is to reapply the Windows NT Service Pack.
You have successfully completed the installation of the IBM EtherJet PC Card.
