After gathering information about your computer, the Setup wizard guides you through installing the Windows 2000 networking components. This segment of the setup process begins when Setup detects your network adapter cards. After configuring network adapters, it locates a server running the DHCP Server service on the network. To continue with the wizard, you complete the following steps:
- Choose to install networking components with typical or customized settings. The typical installation includes the following options:
- Client for Microsoft Networks, which allows your computer to gain access to network resources.
- File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks, which allows other computers to gain access to file and print resources on your computer.
- TCP/IP, which is the default networking protocol that allows your computer to communicate over local area networks (LANs) and wide area networks (WANs).
- Join a workgroup or domain.
Setup installs and configures the Windows 2000 components that you have selected.
