I have RTL8139C nics. The 3 possibilities contributed in this thread so far include a dead nic, overlapping i/o addresses or insufficient IRQs. The 4th nic added (but not detected) isn't dead as it works on its own on another box so that theory is out. if 2 of the nics have the same i/o address then I guess I'll have to reassign it with the DOS utility.As for running out of IRQs, how do I address that, since they are pci cards?
