installing PCI lan card with onboard lan
« on: May 10, 2005, 10:40:30 AM »
Hi all, my pc has one onbord lan socket. I'm trying to install a PCI lan card so I can have two or three lan connections. I'm trying to set up a network. When I boot up with the PCI car installed, the PC powered up, but does not get as far as POST. No post code, and it stops there. I tried to disable the onboard LAN in Windows, but still does not give POST when booting. It is o.k. when I take the lan card out, but I need to add at leas one more lan connection.

Thanks in advance.

Try LAN card in different slot.  If no good, card is bad.
