Installation Instructions
==================================================================
* Installation
To run the 32-bit Communicator, you MUST have a 32-bit TCP/IP stack.
Both Windows 95 and Windows NT provide built-in 32-bit TCP/IP
stacks that you can set up. You can also get (32-bit) TCP/IP
software from third-party vendors like Trumpet Software,
and Ftp Software.
To obtain a copy of Netscape Communicator, download one of the
self-extracting executable files into a temporary directory.
For 32-bit :
cb32e403.exe (standard installation)
cc32e403.exe (includes Netscape Conference and multimedia plug-ins)
To run the 16-bit Communicator, you MUST have a 16-bit TCP/IP stack.
You can get (16-bit) TCP/IP software from third party vendors like
Trumpet Software and Ftp Software.
To obtain a copy of Netscape Communicator, download one of the
self-extracting executable files into a temporary directory.
For 16-bit :
cb16e403.exe (standard installation)
cc16e403.exe (includes Netscape Conference and multimedia plug-ins)
Double-click on the self-extracting file to start the installation
process automatically.
* Windows 95 users, if you are using any versions prior to this
release, you will get multiple uninstall entries in your
Add/Remove program. If you prefer not having multiple
entries, you should do an uninstall to remove your previous
version of Communicator before you install the new release.
* The Netscape Audio Plug-in will only work if you have a sound
card installed and configured properly. It will not work
with the PC speaker driver. Please check your sound card manual
to configure the sound card.
* If you had previously installed CoolTalk Watchdog, then you must
uninstall the version you have and reboot your machine before
installing the latest version. You might experience some
problems running Cooltalk with Matrox MGA Millennium graphic
adapters using early Windows 95 drivers. Make sure that you are
running version 2.22.039 or later.
* If you have deinstalled an earlier version of Communicator, reboot
your system before installing another copy of Communicator. Files
might exist that cannot be deleted until your system is rebooted.
==================================================================
Running Netscape Communicator
==================================================================
What do I need to run Netscape Communicator?
There are three requirements for Netscape Communicator:
1. A direct Ethernet connection to the net, or a dialup
SLIP or PPP account from an Internet service provider.
2. TCP/IP stack
3. Netscape Communicator 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).
==================================================================
International
==================================================================
The Netscape installer will overwrite existing OLE2 DLLs with the
latest versions for US Windows. This will not affect 32-bit
Windows. Occasionally, the Japanese user may see an English
language OLE2 error message after installing Netscape Communicator.
Currently, there are no Japanese versions available for the OLE2 DLLs.
