If you go to 3COM sopport and download the drivers, included in the driver packaged is a DOS Diagnostic App, this will inform you of the settings the card is set to.

Just my $.02, but if you're setting up a server, if you're having trouble installing the network card drivers, that's the least of your problems. You might want to invest in a good book on NT Server Administration.

i know how to set up the server and everything and mine is already configured to be nothing more than just in a workgroup, im not setting up a domain or anything all i want is to run NT so that i can use vmware to test other os's liek os/2 what ios os/2 anyway????
Thx in advance!!!
