Hi all! On Thu, Jan 15, 1998 at 04:58:54PM -0700, Brett Taylor wrote: > I bought a new machine recently.

I had been trying to check the machine using WinDoZe NT 3.51 (which came installed) and it couldn't find the installed network card so I borrowed a different card from someone else. This machine actually has the networking built in on the MB so it was finding this and NOT the borrowed card. Of course the cable was plugged into the borrowed card ... sigh. Thanks to Norman Rice for helping out. I never did get NT to find the network card, yet FBSD found it right away. Yet another reason why I don't use WinDoZe! ********************************************************* Brett Taylor brett@peloton.physics.montana.edu http://peloton.physics.montana.edu/brett/
