Hello Everyone.
I hope someone can help me with my little problem.
After running Knoppix Linux in normal (not failsafe} mode from the CD-ROM for the first time when I rebooted the computer back into Windows ME the driver for the onboard N.I.C. refused to load making the network adapter unavalable to Windows.I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the driver and turning the adapter on and off in the BIOS.
The network adapter works under Linux and I am using it to post this while running Knoppix Linux from the CD-ROM so I know that the adapter is not broke.
What I think may have happened is that the Linux driver(?) changed a hardware setting for the adapter that the windows driver can't deal with.
Anybody hane any ideas on how I can fix this?
I am a first time Linux user and I like what I am seeing of Linux/Knoppix so I hope that this problem is just going to be a minor bug.
