I am working on an old AMD700 system, had to put in a new hard drive. Everything went ok, and installed WIN98_SE. everthing seemed to go ok, however, I needed to install drivers for the Linksys Nic card and for the onboard sound. Before proceeding, but after WIN98 installed, I did another re-boot, and the screen was blank, with beep codes. Could not figure out what was causing problem, so removed nic and system booted ok, put nic card back in and screen goes blank, and keyboard mouse freeze, remove nic, and all works ok again. Other than hard disk crash, system was working fine beforehand. Any ideas.
I dont have a spare nic card handy, and of course I will try that next to see if the card is flaky, just posting now in case anyone has come across this before?
