I am using Windows 98 and I don't know if I have a 'Network Card'. I heard that you can plug something into it? Can anyone give me a tutorial on how I locate the network card (if I have one) both physically and technically?
 
Physically, there will be a jack on the back of the computer that looks like a telephone jack but with 8 gold wires in the connector tather than the 4 that telephone jacks have. Ane the connector will be wider than a telephone jack to accomodate the 8.
For technical you can do a google search for "ethernet connections" to get some idea of what you can do.

Well, thanks.

I will have a look at the back of my computer.
