i booted the dos disk on my freebsd stand alone machine and started the 3com app...it loaded..looked nice and all but i got some 'write error' i tried a couple of disks and still the same thing, i think now imgona take the card and put it in my windows computer and run it the dos util from there and disable pnp on the card, will that work? or will it reset the config as soon as i put it into anoter computer?
