What, the SCSI or the NIC. SCSI is a Adaptec AVA-1502AP supplied in the box with my
Cannon scanner.

What, as a default NIC.

I used the scan new hardware as the manual suggested, and then you specify the file
on the disk as the 'Other Locations'.

Yeah, the ISA came up as a Realtek. But in the scan for new hardware, Win95 called
it a Pcind3 Ethernet Adapter.

Will do.
