======
Win32s
======
If you are running version 1.15 or below of Win32s, you will be
unable to install the Netscape Navigator unless you upgrade to
version 1.20 of Win32s or unless you remove Win32.
You can determine which version of Win32s you have in one of two
ways:
- check the WIN32S.INI file in your Windows system directory
- if you are running Windows for Workgroups, select the
WIN32S16.DLL file from the Windows system directory in File
Manager. Then from the File menu, choose Properties. The Version
line contains the major version and the build number.
To remove Win32s, do the following:
1. Remove the following line from the [386Enh] section in the
SYSTEM.INI file:
device=<WINDOWS>\<SYSTEM>\win32s\w32s.386
where <WINDOWS> and <SYSTEM> are where the Windows and System
directories are, respectively.
2. Remove WINMM16.DLL from the following line from the [BOOT]
section in the SYSTEM.INI file:
drivers=mmsystem.dll winmm16.dll
3. Delete the following files from the <WINDOWS>\<SYSTEM>
subdirectory:
W32SYS.DLL
WIN32S16.DLL
WIN32S.INI
4. Delete all the files in the <WINDOWS>\<SYSTEM>\WIN32S
subdirectory. Then delete the subdirectory itself.
5. Restart Windows.
Here's how you can obtain Win32s version 1.2 which Microsoft
refers
to as application note PW1118:
To obtain this Microsoft Application Note (number PW1118) and
the files included with it, download self-extracting file
PW1118.EXE from the Microsoft Software Library (MSL) on the
following services:
- CompuServe
GO MSL
Search for PW1118.EXE
Display results and download
- Microsoft Download Service (MSDL)
Dial (206) 936-6735 to connect to MSDL
Download PW1118.EXE
- Internet (anonymous FTP)
ftp ftp.microsoft.com
Change to the \SOFTLIB\MSLFILES directory
Get PW1118.EXE
========
OLE 2.02
========
The Netscape install program for Windows 3.1 and Windows for
Workgroups will install the following OLE2 files into the Windows
System directory if either there is no existing DLL or the
existing DLL is older:
COMPOBJ.DLL 108544 10-10-94
MFCOLEUI.DLL 146976 1-13-95
OLE2.DLL 302592 10-10-94
OLE2.REG 27026 10-10-94
OLE2CONV.DLL 57328 10-10-94
OLE2DISP.DLL 164832 10-10-94
OLE2NLS.DLL 150976 10-10-94
OLE2PROX.DLL 51712 10-10-94
STDOLE.TLB 4304 10-10-94
STORAGE.DLL 157696 10-10-94
TYPELIB.DLL 177216 10-10-94
=====================================
Configuring the Netscape Audio Player
=====================================
For Windows NT, you must manually configure the audio player as
a Netscape Navigator helper application. To do this from the
Options menu choose Preferences.
Then select Helper Applications as the category on which to set
preferences. For both the audio/x-aiff and the audio/basic file
types you need to specify the full pathname to the Netscape audio
player. Typically this will be the following pathname:
C:\NETSCAPE\NAPLAYER.EXE
The Netscape Audio Player does not work with beta 2 of Windows
95, and will report "Sound device not available" even if you have
one available and working.
=============
International
=============
The Netscape installer will overwrite existing OLE2 DLLs with
the latest versions for US Windows. This will not affect 32-bit
Windows. For 16-bit Windows, the only difference between the US
and the Japanese versions are the internationalization of error
strings.
Occasionally, the Japanese user may see an English language OLE2
error message after installing Netscape.
Currently, there are no Japanese versions available for the OLE2
DLLs. Netscape is working with Microsoft to make the Japanese
version of the OLE2 DLLs available.
================
Running Netscape
================
What do I need to run Netscape Navigator?
You must have a direct Internet connection before you can use
Netscape. The ability to send and receive e-mail does not
necessarily mean you can run Netscape. There are three
requirements for Netscape Navigator 1.1:
1. A direct Ethernet connection to the net, or a dialup SLIP or
PPP account from an Internet service provider.
2. Novell's TCP/IP 16-bit or 32-bit client protocol stack.
3. Netscape Navigator software.
You can get a direct connection to the Internet through a
service provider in your area. You will need to get a SLIP or a
PPP account from an Internet provider (for a dialup account).
=======================
Cannot Find WINSOCK.DLL
=======================
If you get the error message "Cannot find WINSOCK.DLL" when
running Netscape Navigator that means your computer is looking
for the WINSOCK.DLL file. This file will normally be found in
\NET\BIN\WINSOCK.DLL. If you do not load your TCP/IP protocol
stack, you will get this error.
A Winsock package makes it so that your PC can talk TCP/IP,
which is necessary for Netscape to run. See the "Running
Netscape" section for details on running the Netscape Navigator,
and the "Obtaining a Winsock Package" section for suggestions on
obtaining a Winsock package.
Loading the SL/IP or PPP drivers but not connecting to your
Internet Service Provider allows you to load WINSOCK.DLL, which
in turn allows you to load Netscape Navigator. In this scenario,
you must connect to your Internet Service Provider before remote
hosts can be accessed via the browser, although you may view
local HTML (.HTM) files.

Installation Instructions:
Version 1.1 is being distributed as both a 16-bit Windows program
and a 32-bit Windows program. If you are running Win3.x you must
use the 16-bit version even if you are running Win32s, because
the 32-bit version makes use of 32-bit API calls not supported by
Win32s.
Both the 16-bit and 32-bit versions includes an installation
program. To install Netscape run the SETUP.EXE program. The
Netscape installation program will install Netscape in a
directory of your choice, add a Netscape section to your WIN.INI
file, and create a Program Manager group and item.
* Initialization File
The self extracting archive for the Netscape Navigator contains
the initialization file NETSCAPE.INI, which has entries for all
of the values you can customize for the Netscape Navigator.
* Please read the release notes under "Help -> Release Notes".
