Hello - I have half a dozen jumperless combination ISA NE2000 compatible cards - badged "Ansel" with a UM9008F chip onboard.  These all worked FINE on a 10Base2 network.  Then I used them in pairs with 10BaseT cross-over cables - again they all worked fine.
Now I want to RESTORE the 10Base2 network - but these cards won't default to the original 10Base2 (BNC connector) setting - like they're supposed to:  auto-selection is 'stuck' on the RJ45 connector !!  If it was just one, I'd think 'faulty card' - but they're all the same.  I've been mooching around driver/utility sites all day, and it seems that some companies provided a disk with their cards which allowed user-defined connection - but all the utilities I've downloaded so far (over a dozen !) are restricted to defining Interrupt and Port only.

Does anyone know of any way to reset these jumperless/PnP cards to default - or does anyone have a program which allows user selection of the connector ?  Am using WIN95b/NetBeui - or I would be if the cards would behave !

Regards

Colin

unistall them from the device manager....where did you get them from.....and what net system are you running......10x10=100mps= to a standard network card....I TRIED the usual de-installing, re-loading drivers etc, and have narrowed down the problem as being on the cards themselves, as I've even installed a couple (one at a time) on completely clean systems: i.e. using blank HDDs and completely fresh WIN95 installs.  There are no transmit pulses, and thus no voltages present at the BNC connector.  Dead in the water.

I wanted to re-constitute the 10Base2 LAN as ducted/ through the wall wiring is already in place.  If I can't solve the problem today then I'll buy 'em a hub and some new CABLE and get the CARPETS up - but it would be nice to make the kit work as before - as the original designer intended !!

Try another  bank in the mobo.........or go into the bios...to enable all pnp hardware.....Just wanted to say thanks for your advice on this one.

In the end I gave up and scrounged a box of old 3com cards that were destined for the skip.  Installed these and network running ok now, as solid as a rock.

3Coms are definitely a better choice.
