   to the network and large files were downloaded over the network from the NT Server.
	
HOW TO USE:

1. Download the SoftPaq to a directory on your hard drive and change 
to that directory.  The file that is downloaded is an executable with 
a filename based on the SoftPaq Number above.

2. From that drive and directory, execute the downloaded file 
and follow the on-screen instructions. 

3. Replace the old 3COM DOS NDIS driver file EL90X.DOS on your DOS network boot 
diskette with the new driver unpacked in step 2 above.

4. After the boot diskette has been updated, you may delete the  
SoftPaq file downloaded in step 2.
