Hi,
I wand to try to run a network between Win 3.11 (workgroup) and 2 XP pcs. So I used a Fiberline network card but nothing happend. It seems that die laptop doesn't accept or find that card. (It is an old Thinkpad 755C) So is there anything to bring the network alive?
I also had a look at wown.com but that doesn't solve my problems :-(
