They are a pain however as they must be set via the dos config util to 10 or 100 MB. Once you do this, you are fine. I have however run into a new version of the 3c905B card that I cannot get to w ork at all. It is not even recogognized at bootup. They look about the same but they say "performance" on the main chip and they have a few less parts. Anyone k now about these?
