ethernet: resource conflict, IBM ThinkCentre

[K7GUH]

Old Latin proverb: caveat emptor. The problems you have experienced may explain why the item was for sale, especially if it was for sale "cheap".

I dunno,

I bought one of these from Tiger Direct about a year ago and it's been an absolute charm.

This thread is old, but in case something like this happens to someone else, a resource conflict of this type is caused when two I/O devices are a) using the same interrupts and have not been properly configured for interrupt sharing; b) are using the same I/O port addresses; c) are using the same buffer ram addresses; d) any combination of these.
