It might be the way the drivers or installing or something to this nature, I dont
know for sure. Before this happened to me on a clean install of Windows 98 and when
I installed the drivers for the card, it kept telling me that I was missing ndis.vxd
and ndiswan.vxd or something like that. When I downloaded them and put them in the
proper places, the card worked like a dream, but it wasn't able to see the other
shares on my network. The card itself is correctly installed, so there is no problems
with that, but I dont know what's wrong with it.
