PCI ethernet adapter
Having problems installing a PCI ethernet adapter. Have installed the
hardware OK and driver installation goes ok from supplied CD until it asks for Windows 98 se CD. I put the Windows 98 se CD in and click OK but it says it can't find the files it's looking for. I re-tried several times but no luck . There is no browse facility to point it at drivers & I've tried E:\drivers in the box but no luck. all help gratefully received. |

Check your hard drive for a number of files ending in the letters CAB - if
found these are your Windows Setup files and you should tell the installer to look there for the Windows files it needs instead of on your Windows 98 CD. -- Richard G.

Since the routine is looking for Win98 drivers (not ethernet brand-specific files) it should probably be looking in E:\Win98\ But if the routine really has "no browse facility" somethingn more serious is wrong. -- Don Phillipson Carlsbad Springs (Ottawa, Canada) |
