We have the same PROBLEM!!!
I have KT7A-RAID motherboard, AMD T-BIRD 1.2 GHZ, 256M RAM, two
WD100EB hard drives in RAID 0, Diamond A50 AGP, no other devices except for
Linksys LNE100TX in PCI slot 3. I can not see my other two computers on my
network. I have spent hours with Linksys Tech Support, and with Micrososft
Tech Support with no results. The NIC card has been changed out with one
from of the
computers that works OK with the Laptop. I have booted both computers to DOS
and ran the Diag that came with Linksys Network In A BOX, and that works
great,so I'm sure the network stuff is OK. Everything else on my system
works fine, but then I don't have all that much other stuff like fancy sound
cards and the like.
SANDRA run great except for the Network stuff. Between Linksys,and Microsoft
we have been over every thing at least 10 times with the NETWORK set up. I'm
about to wear out my Win98SE cd from reloading W98. I'm at the point where I
am fingering my credit card to order a different Motherboard. My feeling is
there is something wrong in the PCI bus on this board. I have also tried the
latest 4in1 drivers from VIA, and the BIOS is at WW.
