Can't connect, please help

[Dyngoe]

Hi Y'all,

I'm having trouble connecting my two computers. One has 1 DLink 10/100 on IRQ10 and seems to work fine. The computer atleast shows up in it's own network neighborhood. The other computer has 1 Dlink 10/100 and 1 3Com 10/100, both on IRQ10. This computer can connect to the external DSL modem through the DLink, but not the 3Com, and can do nothing to connect to the other computer. The computer doesn't even show up in it's own Network Neighborhood. All the cables are new and checked and the connection lights on the computers and the hub are on. I'm really confused.

As Always,
D

3com 3c905 by chance? I think those like to be in bus mastering slots. At least mine did in an older machine. Usually the top PCI slot right under the AGP slot. Give that a try.

NICs best like PCI slots 2 and 3.
