Specifying Command-Line Parameters for NDIS 2 Drivers (110923)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows for Workgroups 3.11
This article was previously published under Q110923 SUMMARY
When you use Windows for Workgroups 3.11 with certain NDIS 2 network
adapter drivers, you must specify command-line parameters to make these
drivers load correctly. These parameters can be added by editing the
SYSTEM.INI file with a text editor such as Microsoft Windows Notepad.
Below is an example in which the real-mode drivers for a Xircom credit card
adapter are loaded in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file:
CECFG DRIVER=NDIS
CENDIS
When these NDIS 2 drivers are loaded with Windows for Workgroups 3.11, they
are loaded on the transport= line of the SYSTEM.INI file. To pass the
DRIVER=NDIS parameter to CECFG.EXE, add the following line to the [network
drivers] section of the SYSTEM.INI file:
[network drivers]
CECFG.EXE="Driver=NDIS"
