- OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
- KEYWORDS:
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- The information in this article applies to:
-
- - Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Microsoft provides the files in the Microsoft Windows NT Driver
- Library (WNTDL). Files in the WNTDL support many printers, displays,
- sound cards, and network card adapters that the Windows NT 3.1 release
- does not support directly. If you have a modem, the drivers are
- available at no charge on CompuServe, GEnie, Microsoft OnLine, and the
- Microsoft Download Service (MSDL). Note that standard connect-time
- fees and long-distance telephone charges, if any, apply when you
- download files. When you connect to any of these services, please read
- the WNTDL.TXT file for downloading instructions and a complete list of
- the devices that the WNTDL supports.
-
- The phone number for the MSDL is (206) 936-MSDL (6735). There is no
- connect-time charge to use the MSDL.
-
- On CompuServe, the WNTDL is in the Microsoft Software Library, which
- you can access by typing "go msl" (without quotation marks) at any
- CompuServe system prompt.
-
- On the GEnie and Microsoft OnLine systems, the WNTDL is in the
- Microsoft Software Library.
-
- If you do not have access to a modem, you can obtain an individual
- driver from the WDL on a disk by calling Microsoft Product Support
- Services at (206) 635-7018.
-
- NOTE: If your first 30 days of free phone support have expired, you
- must call (206) 635-7022.
-
- The text below presents the complete text of the WNTDL.TXT file
- distributed with WNTDL.
-
- MORE INFORMATION
- ================
-
- The Microsoft Windows NT Driver Library (WNTDL) contains device
- drivers for printers, displays, audio devices, storage devices, and
- network card adapters. These drivers enable these devices to run with
- the Microsoft Windows NT operating system.
-
- As new and updated drivers become available, they will be added to the
- WNTDL.
-
- This WNTDL.TXT file includes a list of all the devices supported by
- the drivers in the WNTDL and instructions for downloading the drivers.
- This file is updated on a regular basis.
-
- Note: All the drivers included in this library are intended for use
- with Windows NT.
-
- Instructions for Downloading
- ----------------------------
-
- 1. Locate your device in the listing included at the end of this
- WNTDL.TXT file. Note the name of the file listed next to the
- device. You need to download this file from your download
- service.
-
- 2. If you are downloading to a floppy disk, you need to have a
- formatted, blank disk. If you are downloading to your hard
- disk, create a new subdirectory in which you will place the
- files.
-
- CAUTION: Do not download files directly into your main Windows
- NT directory. Doing so could overwrite files essential to the
- proper operation of your system.
-
- 3. Follow the downloading procedure used by your downloading
- service. The file you download is the executable or program
- (.EXE) file that you identified in step 1. This file contains
- all the files you need to support your device.
-
- Download the .EXE file to your floppy disk or to the new
- subdirectory you created on your hard disk.
-
- 4. Change to the floppy disk drive (or the subdirectory on your
- hard disk) that contains the .EXE file. At the MS-DOS prompt,
- type the filename, and then press ENTER.
-
- When the .EXE file finishes running, all the files you need to
- support your device, such as a .DRV file and an OEMSETUP.INF
- file, are set up. You are also provided with a .TXT file that
- contains instructions for installing the device drivers (or
- other software) and a licensing agreement.
-
- If you have problems extracting files, try downloading the
- files again.
