If you solve it please let me know.
Hi folks. I've seen this kind of thing before. When possible, the best approach has seemed to be to use the DOS utility to set the 3COM card such that it is _not_ in plug 'n pray mode. Then, force Win '95 to accept a static declaration of the hardware address, interupt, etc. (Note that Windoze often does not want to do this.) If your card is not presently in plug 'n pray mode, then I have no useful suggestion at this time.
