Hi Civileme,
Mandrake detects the 3c509 on a wrong way, it says it's on IRQ 5 and I/O
220. This is not true, it is on IRQ 10 (5 is my soundcard) and I/O is 0x2E0
when I change it manually it is talking about modprob and isa-pnp. Is it
trying to reload the network driver in memory??? But with wrong parameters?
In my BIOS I changed the PnP and assigned IRQ 10 to my ISA slot (have
only 1 ISA card and slot).
I tried another network card but that doesn't work togerther with my
cable modem :-(
What now?
Greets and thanks in advance,
Drosera!
