3Com Mini PC help: "cable disconnected"

#1 Post by araina » Thu Dec 23, 2004 5:39 pm

Hi

Thanks to a couple of very nice people here, i finally got the 3com combo card off ebay.

I had some problems installing the driver but it worked.

There are two problems:

1. Even when a cat5 is plugged in, it says "Cable not connected".
2. Intel VLAN Virtual Adapter is shown with a yellow exclamation mark in device manager.

Does #2 have anything to do with #1?

Thanks!

T20-2647 31U.

Except: I have win2k and a T20.
