Installing Network Drivers
This file describes how to install REALTEK rtl8139B(L) CardBus network card that completes your notebook PC to network.
Before You Install the Network Driver Make sure which network driver you should use. The drivers for each OS environment are provided on the list:
Windows 95 version 4.00.950 or 4.00.950a Windows 95 version 4.00.950b or OSR2 Windows NT version Windows 98 Windows 2000 Windows Millennium NetWare ODI Client Microsoft Network Client for DOS Windows for Workgroups v3.11
Which Windows 95 version am I running? You must determine if you are running the new Windows 95 OEM Service Release 2 (OSR2) or the standard Windows 95 before you install the network driver. Since standard Windows 95 does not support CardBus, the driver installation directory is different. Follow these steps to find out which version of Windows 95 you are running: 1. In the Windows 95 Control Panel, double-click System to display the System Properties dialog box. 2. Click the General Tab to display the Windows 95 version information. If your Windows 95 version is 4.00.950 or 4.00.950a, go to the next section to install the network driver. If your Windows 95 version is 4.00.950b (OSR2), go to the Windows 95 Version 4.00.950b (OSR2) section to install the network driver.
