- 3COM NIC boot from network
- Posted by Bodo v. Ulmenstein on December 28th, 2003
Hi,
When I boot my PC the NIC (3COM 3C905C-TX-M) BIOS attempts to boot from
Network.
The mainboard BIOS allows me to choose bootable devices so I disable the
option to boot from Network.
However this is ignored by the NIC. The NIC BIOS options do not allow me to
disable this feature.
To workaround this I have to remove the NIC form the PCI slot.
Anyone has any idea how to troubleshoot?
Thanks
Bodo
