Ok, bigger problem now!

I deleted the NIC, and tried to reinstall it as Rod suggested. However,
now I can't install the card.

Whenever Win95 tells me it found the NIC, it installs and gets to 100%
installed, but then the computer crashes. It starts alright, but when I go
to the Win95 system devices thingo, it says to change the drivers, but
that isn't possible.

Does anyone know what's wrong. I think it is stuffing up because of it IO
problems, but hopefully someone may know.

Thanks -- Josh
