and completing the operating system Setup. See the README.TXT file and the CardWizard for
Windows NT User’s Guide delivered on the diskette for installation instructions.
u If you did not receive this diskette, the latest driver and CardWizard software are already installed on
the system. You can make a backup diskette for this software using InterSite Version Manager. See
Version Manager Help for more information on creating system software backup diskettes.

After restarting the system and logging on to Windows NT, install CardWizard software, using the default
settings during Setup. See the documentation delivered with the PC Card adapter for detailed CardWizard
installation and configuration instructions.
NOTE If you reinstall Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 3 software on a system with a PC Card
adapter, you must install the CardWizard software after installing Service Pack 3
software. If you do not do this, you may experience problems when using the PC Card
adapter. This is an exception to the general rule that you must reinstall Service Pack 3
software any time you change hardware or software components on a system.
Depending on your system’s configuration, you may have to reserve an interrupt request (IRQ) for a PC
Card device inserted in the PC Card adapter.
