4.  INSTALLATION NOTES

4.1 Standard Installation
    Please refer to the 'Getting Started Guide' or 'User's
    Guide' that came with your product.

    During installation, after giving driver path and NT files
    path, the network installation will ask the user to reboot
    the system. This only appears to be a problem when a clean
    install of the OS is done and network components are
    installed for the first time.

    You can resolve this error by answering NO
    to the first question to reboot the system after installing
    the driver files. Only reboot the system after the Network
    Install Wizard has Finished. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------

5.  TECHNICAL CONSTRAINTS

5.1 Compatibility with Station Functions Firmware on the Card.
    This version of the driver requires the Station Functions
    firmware on the Card to be version 6.04 or higher.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

6.  KNOWN ISSUES

6.1 "ORiNOCO" Add/Edit profile does not appear upon installation

    The "ORiNOCO" driver requires Windows NT Service Pack 4 or
    higher.

    In case you are running SP3 or lower, your Windows NT system
    does not provide the Windows system DLLs required to make the
    Add/Edit profile window work.

    You can resolve this error by either:
    * Installing Microsoft Windows NT Service Pack 4 or higher
      (SP 6 is recommended), 
    * (Re-)installing the latest Client Manager.

6.2 I/O Port conflicts under MS-Windows NT4.

    When your "ORiNOCO" Card's installation completed successfully,
    but it does not become operational, you are advised to try a
    different I/O Port value.

6.3 IRQ conflicts under MS-Windows NT4.

    When your "ORiNOCO" Card's installation completed successfully,
    but it does not become operational, you are advised to try a
    different IRQ value.
