A while back I was posting asking for some help with an SNF Install & 2 NICs I had in the box.
It seemed one of them, a DLink, had a light on it like all NICs but the light wouldn't go on at boot time. That seemed strange. So I thought it was a dead card. Almost threw out a decent card! Seems after installing an 8.2 ver of MDK On the same box with some different hardware (i was testing 2 vid cards I have), I decided to try the Dlink again. Sure enough, it wouldn't light up. So I fiddled around with it, and finally installed it through the Mandrake Control Centre. Works fine now. Stumped as to why now it lights up like a Xmas tree, and before it wouldn't even blink once! Any ideas ladies & gents? If not its fine. The card works. Now all I must do is figure out how to screw around on the LAN with the card installed & only the firewall working. :) New challenges! --- Femme
