I envy you! After hours of experimentation, I'm ready to give up on getting my 3c905cx-txm to work. I've done the DOS config util tests - says nothing wrong - and tried setting it to auto mode, half duplex, full duplex, but still, after 5 mins of heavy network traffic my box just freezes every time and I have to power down - at the rate I'm having to "fsck /" (and the amount of error being fixed), I won't have a box left after long! (Anyone got any idea of how to continue testing this situation without giving my hard disk a heart attack?) Btw Tom, which driver are you using for that 3c905C-TX? alex -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
