there's a pc with already 1 nic but i wish to add a 2nd one, diff. brand/drivers.

i'll shut down the pc, install the 2nd nic in a avail. slot... boot up, addnewhardware, have disk....


i guess this is it, other than any IRQ conflicts right?

The only things that I could think of are the IRQs and the IP configuration of both nics. I would think though that an operating system today such as Windows or Linux would take care of these problems.

I hope this helps,

no add new hardware in NT, just right click network neighborhood and go to properties then to the adapters tab.
