SUMMARY
=======

This article outlines the required configuration for using the Quantum Hardcard
XL with Microsoft Windows 3.1.

MORE INFORMATION
================

To use a Hardcard XL with Windows 3.1, Quantum (formerly Plus Development)
recommends the following:

- In the CONFIG.SYS file, load all memory managers before loading Quantum's
  ATDOSXL.SYS device driver. For example:

        device=c:\windows\himem.sys
        device=c:\windows\emm386.exe
        device=c:\atdosxl.sys

- Exclude the Hardcard XL's BIOS address range (the default is C800-C9FF),
  using either a memory manager (EMM386.EXE) or the EMMEXCLUDE= statement in
  the SYSTEM.INI file.

- Use version 1.7 of Quantum's ATDOSXL.SYS device driver. This device driver
  can be downloaded from Quantum's bulletin board service (BBS). The device
  driver is in a self-extracting file called HCIIXL.EXE.
