: I experience lockups when using this card with a Hitachi E series
: laptop.  I can use a New Media LiveWire 10/100 card fine.  This card
: uses the same driver as the one loaded for the IBM card.  I allocate
: specific FREE resources in the pccard.conf file with no success.
: Removing the card also does not help, the computer stays locked
: I do see the IBM card on the list of supported NICs by name but I have
: also heard of trouble getting this card to work.  I would appreciate
any
: assistance in fixing this problem.

Hmmmm, the IBM CreditCard Ethernet II should just work.  It is just a
NE2000 clone.  I've had reports in the past of it working well.

I believe the New Media LiveWire 10/100 card is a NE2000 clone.  I have
used at least one of the IBM cards on a Win98 machine successfully.  The
laptop is an IBM Thinkpad 600.  I have tried both cards on the
BSD/Hitachi laptop.  I will admit that I have never tried the IBM card
on the Hitachi laptop in Windows.  I have posted this problem three
times in consecutive months.  My last post has all the information which
I did not want to repeat.  The URL is

you can help as my only alternative is a Win 98 internet router.
