Check for interrupt conflicts with the card - is it sharing an IRQ with another device? You can check this during boot up as most machines these days show a screen listing the IRQs of detected PCI devices.

You can change the cfg using a Dos .exe which Realtek provides. ---------------------------------------------------------------- John Karns [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _____________________________________________________________________ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
