On my computer i have NT and 95. My i/o adress from my networkcard in NT is
FF40. I recently installed 95 on my computer and it can't detect the
Networkcard (NC), because i think it only reads i/o adresses till 0330 or
something like it. So i tried to change my i/o adress from my NC, but it
failed time after time.
My NC is a LAN-32PCIR PCI Ethernet Adapter, with no switches on the card.
Can someone please tell me how i can change the adress???

a few possibilites here -- best to leave your nic on PnP if your utility
shows that.

PnP or soft-set, if there are no jumpers whatsoever on the card.
Most are that way now.

don't know that card.

some must be soft-set with a special utility, included with the nic new,
also often download-able often from company site if you dno't have the
etherdisk for the nic.

some are PnP only and can't be set, 3com is like that.

Some are both, meaning the soft-set utility will let you set it for PnP or
set it to fixed values which you would then set in the OS, Device Manger in
win95.

Also see if there are any Unknown devices in Device Manager -- sometimes a
PnP card goes there, and it will never work until you remove it from Device
Manager. But that would at least mean it spoke to the OS in PnP.

Also a conflict sometimes 'covers' a PnP device so that it doesn't announce
itself until you disable what it is conflicting with.
You would have to hack around on that.
