"EL driver funciona bien, lo único, es necesario quitar la placa, descomprimir los archivos en una carpeta, luego apagar y poner la placa. De esa manera cuando Windows XP Pro inicia detecta y busca en la carpeta se dá de alta solo. DGE"

"After installing Win XP Pro. It reported "cable unplugged!" when traying to make a network connection. On the same machine, using W2k Pro, thin ethernet it worked fine. After installing this driver i stil got the same error. But (as mentioned Colin Bell) changing the config setting of the card from UTP to BNC it worked. I still had to configure the network setting (again!)

"Sorry! but as I tried to install this driver to my Windowx XP OS, my OS denied to install it as my Ethernet Controller driver and instead of it, installed its own incorrect W89C940 dirver . After installing the XP driver, I encountered with your default error "Network Cable unplogged". it is so interesting that I even can connect to my workgroup computers through this com
