 Introduction
 
        This installation assumes that the PCMCIA drivers are working properly.
        Please consult INST_DOS.TXT for help with PCMCIA Drivers.
        Getting Started will describe the installation for NBIOS.

 Requirements
 
        A PCMCIA compatible Laptop
        A PCMCIA chipset that is PCIC compatible (Intel, Cirrus, Vadem, and
         VLSI) or Databook compatible.
        A Network Operating System compatible to NBIOS
        A DE-650CT (our single media cards are not supported, 650T and 650C)
        A knowledge of basic DOS commands and editing text files

 Minimum Skill Level
 
        A knowledge of basic DOS commands
        A knowledge of editing text files
        A knowledge of DOS basic file structure (CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT)
        A knowledge of the network driver configuration being used
        Please see Support Options if you are not comfortable will this
         skill level

 Compatibility List
 
        DE-650CT only (will not run with DE-650T or DE-650C)
        Removal of any present PCMCIA drivers
        For a laptop compatibility list please consult your local
         D-Link Branch Office

 Getting Started
 
        The D-Link's NetBIOS Emulator is a standardized network interface
        program that allows this adapter to run NetBIOS-based network
        operating systems like the IBM PC LAN Program and others.  No
        software modification or additional installation is necessary. All
        operations, as well as installation procedures for the network
        operating system, remain the same.

        Install the Network Operating System

        Remove any references to a network adapter driver and netbios

        In the appropriate batch file add the following before loading
         the network operating system.

        Load the driver program, IPXDE65S.COM.

        Load the NetBIOS Emulator program, NBIOS.EXE.

         The following switches can adjust Netbios to meet the configuration.

                      >NBIOS [/Sm] [/Ck]

     The parameters after NBIOS are optional.  Their functions are:

     /Sm specifies the maximum number of sessions allowed in your computer
         where m ranges from 1 up to 254.If this parameter is not specified,
         the default values of 32 will be used.

     /Ck specifies the maximum number of NetBIOS commands that can be used in
         your computer; where k ranges from 1 up to 255.  If this parameter
         is not specified, the default value of 32 will be used.

         Your computer is now ready to run a NetBIOS-based network operating
         system.
