Re: NIC PnP

I have the driver but cannot access the driver. The setup utility for the NIC
gives me:

3c5x9setup.c:v1.00 6/19/2000 Donald Becker (becker@xxxxxxxxx)
http://www.scyld.com/diag/index.html
No interrupt sources are pending.
3c5x9 found at 0x300.
Indication enable is 0000, interrupt enable is 0000.
EEPROM contents:
Model number 3c509 version 5, base I/O 0x300, IRQ 10, 10baseT port.
3Com Node Address 00:50:DA:7E:30:2A (used as a unique ID only).
OEM Station address 00:50:DA:7E:30:2A (used as the ethernet address).
Manufacture date (MM/DD/YY) 11/11/99, division 6, product WK.
Options: half duplex, enable linkbeat.
The computed checksum matches the stored checksum of 7e03.

The enables don't look right, could that be my problem?
Regards,
Dave.
