SUMMARY
=======

To run Microsoft System Diagnostic (MSD) version 2.0, which ships with Windows
version 3.1, on a network workstation with an Arcnet board, it is necessary to
use the /I switch as follows:

  MSD /I

If you run MSD without any switches, the workstation's connections are terminated
and other workstations on the network using Arcnet boards may experience errors
or disconnections.

The /I parameter causes MSD to start without looking at the hardware. Choose each
option you want additional information about, but do NOT choose NETWORK.
