driver for Kingston ISA ethernet card
I'm a newbie, recently installed RedHat 9 without any trouble. Currently dual booting with WinXP. Unfortunately, I'm using an old Kingston ISA ethernet card on a Abit KT7A-RAID motherboard. Can't seem to find a driver that works. The card works fine with XP but not with RH.
Any suggestions? prob need to just get a new card!
Thx in advance

What is the model of the NIC? Can you check what chipset it uses?

model of NIC
I'll have to go back and check which drivers I've tried...went to the redhat site and followed directions for several diiferent cards (because I don't know specifically what type card it is).
Don't know the model of NIC, it was an old card out of another older machine. Works fine with windows XP but XP uses a generic driver for it. Can I tell by markings on the card? I'll break her open and see.
