I'm having a wierd problem with a network card.
I connected the card to the PCI slot, but windows didn't recognise it.
So I downloaded and installed its (RealTek RTL8139C) drivers, and windows still wont show it up (infact the only network card the Device Maneger shows is my USB ADSL modem).
So I decided to connect it to a hub and see what happens, the hub did recognise it and they (the card and the hub) seem to have comunication
Any ideas why Windows (XP Proffesional) fails to recognise it, and should I worry about that.
