- Microsoft Windows for Workgroups 3.11
This article was previously published under Q110923
SUMMARY
When you use Windows for Workgroups 3.11 with certain NDIS 2 network adapter drivers, you must specify command-line parameters to make these drivers load correctly. These parameters can be added by editing the SYSTEM.INI file with a text editor such as Microsoft Windows Notepad.
Below is an example in which the real-mode drivers for a Xircom credit card adapter are loaded in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file:
CECFG DRIVER=NDIS
CENDIS
When these NDIS 2 drivers are loaded with Windows for Workgroups 3.11, they are loaded on the transport= line of the SYSTEM.INI file. To pass the DRIVER=NDIS parameter to CECFG.EXE, add the following line to the [network drivers] section of the SYSTEM.INI file:
[network drivers]
CECFG.EXE="Driver=NDIS"
