PCI computers automatically detect and configure PCI-compliant NICs while
booting. The Fast Ethernet NIC IRQ level and I/O address are automatically set
by the BIOS each time you start your computer.
Start your computer to automatically configure the Fast Ethernet NIC.
Configuration is complete when Windows NT starts or the DOS prompt
appears.
If your computer displays an error while booting, it may require additional steps
to configure. See the ?PCI Installation Tips? in Appendix A for more
information.
