Hi, I'm running win2000 pro, and using a linksys ln100 adapter version 2. W2000 recognizes it, and I've used the latest drivers (for w2000) from linksys, but in device manager, a code 10 message appears. it says the card cannot start. I've checked for conflicts, none appear. This card works well on my win 98 partition, so I know the card is ok. I've tried re-installing, but no good. Any suggestions? I have also searched Microsofts knowledge base, but could not find anything relevant. Thanks.

I ran into the same problem while installing w2000 and found that if my network card was not terminated to a port of any kind it would not find the card. By port I mean I have to have the cable connected to whereever it is going to connect to the network i.e. Hub, cat5 connector etc.
