2957.0. "networking problem: Windows95 on Celebris GL6200" by NETRIX::"wold@pa.dec.com" (Jason Wold) Thu Mar 20 1997 18:49

I have tried 4 different versions of the dc21x4.dos driver for windows95 but
none of them will get the 21142 network chip working under windows95.  The
current driver version that I have is dated 7/11/95 and came from

http://pcbu.ako.dec.com/~ftp/desktop/celebris/cel_gl6/NGCGL642.EXE

I have tried updating the system BIOS, the Ethernet chip BIOS, reinstalling
the OS.  I know that it is not a hardware problem because I have installed
NT4.0 on the same box and the networking works fine.

Any hints, clues, anything?  A more appropriate conference?

Any and all help greatly appreciated.  I have spent far to much time on 
this problem as it is.
