How to Config Your PCI adapter
==============================

 1. Go to the PCI configuration item in BIOS setup.
 2. Follow these steps to configure the PCI slot:
    a). You should know which slot your adapter is plugged in to.
        Look for the physical location of the slot in your PCI
        motherboard.
    b). Set the "this device" field to "Enable".
    c). Set the "this item" field to "Master".
        The SMC1255TX-PF adapter MUST be installed in an expansion
        slot that supports "Bus Master". Refer to your system 
        documentation to determine which slots support Bus Mastering.
    d). Some BIOS Setups allow you to select which interrupt line you
        can use.  In this case, select "INT A" for the "this item" field.
    e). Select an IRQ of your choice; make sure it does not conflict
        with existing IRQs in use.
    d). Select the "Trigger method" by which the IRQ is assigned or
        routed to the PCI slot.  Choose the "level-trigger" option.
        Multiple SMC1255TX-PF adapters can share the same PCI
        interrupt, but all must use INTA with level-trigger mode.

 3. Run the diagnostic program found in the driver diskette under DOS.
    If any problem arises during the installation, contact your dealer or
    SMC Networks, Inc. for support.



Conflict with Microsoft EMM386
==============================

The PCI adapters can only function with the EMM386.EXE memory manager
program version 4.49 or later. You can verify its version number by
entering EMM386 at the DOS Prompt.

Do not specify the "highscan" option with the EMM386.exe statement
in your config.sys file or your system will hang.

If you run MEMMAKER and select Custom Setup, do not specify
"Aggressively scan upper memory", or it will automatically insert
the HIGHSCAN flag into the EMM386 command line. This parameter cannot
be manually removed once it's installed, doing so will cause the
extended memory manager to malfunction.
