In order to verify the jumper settings which are silkscreened onto the
board, the diagnostic program that comes with the card is a good bet.
Additionally, without this program (3c503.EXE), I don't know if it is
possible to determine/change the IRQ or DMA settings. If you havn't already
tried, you may want to consider hunting for the correct settings by
stepping the jumpers around, and booting Linux to see if the driver
recognizes the board. If all else fails, the 3Com BBS is (408)980-8204.
They have the diagnostic/setup program there.
Some likely combonations are:
I/O RAM IRQ
330 C800 4
350 CC00 5
250 D800 3
280 DC00 2
300 C800 3
310 CC00 2
330 D800 4
350 DC00 5
2A0 C800 4
2E0 CC00 5
