3C339 - Windows 95A, Win95B, NT 4.0 - Cannot insert into the ring
PROBLEM: The Device Manager displays the 3C339 driver as working properly. There are no resource conflicts.
The ring speed is set correctly in the 3Com DOS configuration utility. But, the NIC does not insert into the ring.

Click OK.
Click OK.
Windows NT 4.0:

Click on Properties.
Click on Adapters.
Highlight the 3Com TL 3C339 Adapter.
