Is your system a pentium? the reason that I ask is because if it is a
486 then it is possible that your system might have problems with the
PNP card in that you don't have bios extentions for PNP. But I'm sure
that it is still possible to make it work but...I have had nothing but
problems using legacy motherboards with pnp hardware.
