Hi You also need to remember that the ethernet drivers for the mac need to be loaded. In the extensions folder. I went through 2 cards then on the 3rd by chance looked in my extensions folder and the ethernet extension was not loaded, after selecting it the restarting all 3 cards worked when I tried them. Simple but missed twice. vicki -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
