so don't pass io as a parm for 3c509. Try seeing if the values can be changed in the bios instead. Maybe there's a collision with something else?!
The IO and IRQ of the card, as well as the mode of the card (P&P or no) are changed by using the applications on the disk at this address: http://www.3com.com/products/en_US/result.jsp?selected=6&sort=effdt&sku=3C509B&order=desc I havn't had to use one in several months, but I think you may have to boot with DrDOS (or another DOS) floppy to run the app. You have to set the ethernet card itself into manual (not P&P) mode this way, or else it will misbehave. You should also be able to set the IO address and IRQ for the card this way. David A. Riggs
