Microsoft Does Not Provide Real Mode Novell NetWare Files (134538)

MORE INFORMATION

When you are prompted for the NetWare files, you must provide their location. The files may be located on your hard drive or on a floppy disk. For example, some of the files that are required are NetWare.hlp, Vipx.386, Nwpopup.exe, and VnetWare.386.

The first dialog box, prompting you for the NetWare files, reads as follows:

   The file NETWARE.HLP on Novell NetWare Windows driver disk
   could not be found. Insert Novell NetWare Windows driver disk into
   the drive selected below, and click OK.
				

The second dialog box, prompting you for the Netware.drv file, reads as follows:

   The disk labeled 'Novell NetWare 3.x Windows driver disk' is now
   required. This disk is provided by your computer manufacturer.
				

In this dialog box, the words "provided by your computer manufacturer" are misleading. The disk is provided by a software vendor or reseller.

If you do not have the necessary files, you must obtain them from Novell. Microsoft does not provide the NetWare files.
