-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 3.51 
- Microsoft Windows NT Server version 3.51 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When you run Control Panel, choose Network, and then choose Add Adapter to
install the driver for the National InfoMover NE4100 PCMCIA Ethernet Adapter,
the adapter name does not appear on the list of installable network adapters
even though it is on the Windows NT 3.51 Hardware Compatibility List (HCL).

CAUSE
=====

This adapter is not listed in Control Panel because it is identical to the IBM
PCMCIA Ethernet Adapter II and, therefore, is supported by the "IBM PCMCIA
Ethernet and Compatible Adapter" driver.

RESOLUTION
==========

Select the "IBM PCMCIA Ethernet and Compatible Adapter" from the list of
installable adapters.
