If the above doesn't work, maybe this will help:

I had a similar problem with the 2940AU, but in my case,
installing the drivers every-which way did not work. Windoze95
refused to recognize the card/drivers (doncha love the yellow
exclamation)

After 2 days of mucking around, changing upper memory settings
manually, reinstalling, etc, etc,  I finally disabled  the bios
Plug-N-Play  (Phoenix bios).  That did the trick!   Win95 saw
everything fine, and when I turned bios Plug-N-Play back on,
everything was still fine.
