NT isn't known for its plug and play...<br>The last one I put in I just put it in and ran the software...(once I got one that would see the other cards on the lan)...the 1st one didn't so I made the card the same brand as the others and it worked!<br>I'm sure it doesn't always go this easily...but maybe you'll get lucky.<br>John Payne<br><A HREF="mailto:cadman2_2000@yahoo.com">cadman2_2000@yahoo.com</A><br> <p> <br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href= > </a><br>

Windows NT is not plug and play. My advice is to go with a good quality PCI NIC (intel or 3com). As long as there is only one NIC in the machine installation should be fairly seamless. <p>Al<br><a href=mailto: atc-computing@home.com> atc-computing@home.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
