Network Card

I'm trying to install a network card to my laptop with
W98SE. I was able to install it but there is not TCP/IP
protocol related to my adapter. I tried disabling all
other adapters and re installing the card but it did not
work. Any ideas.

It sounds like you installed the device driver, but not TCP/IP.

So go to My Computer -> Control Panel -> Networking and install
it. The big button that says "Add" will get you started.

You might need to increase the maximum number of TCP/IP bindings.
