Two network cards in NT

Two network cards in NT

Why there are two network adapters listed in NT?
There is only one RJ-45 connector at the back.
One is Compaq Network Adapter, the other is Intel 10/100.
Do I have to uninstall one of them?
Regards,

Ivan

Re: Two network cards in NT

hello
yes this happens because the NC series nic card in your server(s) is a compaq bios but an intel chipset..this is showing up this way because during the install process for the nics it would have shown you both the intel and compaq nics..you NEED to uncheck the intel nic during the install process...what you need to do now to fix this is unisntall the nic completely and reinstall it..when it comes up to the screen that shows you which NIC's it will install UNCHECK The intel nic..hope this helps
