FC2 does not recognize ISA ethernet card

[RoboticGolem]

First, if its not too late, zip into windows, bring up the props on
the card.  Io and Irq...

then zip back and type:

modprobe ne io=0x300 irq=9

Or whatever your io and irq is.  That was mine for a long time.  If
you have the floppy disk of utils of your card, that should have a
util to tell you the settings.  You can use a 98se cd to boot into dos
and then run the util from the floppy.

Ummm....  thats about all I can tell you.  Good luck...

Of course that is assuming that its ne compatable...  I could tell you
exactly if you could tell me what chipset that thing uses.
