The following article contains information on the use of Windows for Workgroups with third-party products or configurations that have not been tested and are not supported by Microsoft.

If the steps or procedures described in this article do not function properly, contact the manufacturer of the third-party product for more information or use a supported configuration.

SUMMARY

Windows for Workgroups does not include an adapter choice for the Artisoft NE3 8-bit Network card. However, the card can emulate a Western Digital (SMC) 8003, 8-bit network card. There are no physical changes to the card (jumpers) necessary for emulation.

MORE INFORMATION

The Artisoft NE3 network card is an earlier model and has been out of production for several years. The configuring software (NE3.EXE) can provide useful information about the card settings. This information can be seen by typing NE3 ? from the MS-DOS command line in the NE3 directory.

Important settings for the card include:
  • Interrupt (labeled J10)
    Available interrupts=2/3/4/5/6/7
    Default interrupt=3
  • RamBase (Software configurable)
    Default=D000
  • I/O Base (Labeled J1)
    Default=280
