Microsoft MN120 Notebook Adapter

Can't bind protocol to PC Card NIC

By Duke - usenet poster


I am running Win98 on a sony vaio picturebook laptop.  I am trying to
install a Microsoft MN120 NIC.   When I  go to device manager, it tells me
the card in installed with no problems.  However, when I go to the "network"
section of control panel, it tells me that the network card is installed.
My problem is under the "bindings" section, there are not protocols bound to
this network card and no matter what I do, I can't get any protocols to bind
to this card.    Any suggestions would be most appreciated.   Thanks.

This Problem has been added to the Share Your Expertise Page under "My Work Queue".

Unfortunately, the laptop has 3 network adapters I use.  The 1st 2 do
explicitly have the bindings mentioned.  The lack of mention is what got me
started.  I may be on the wrong track but from my review of the system
settings, the card is working with no conflicts per control panel, there are
just no protocols bound to the card if you believe the "network" section in
control panel.   Thanks

In article <u0ZoSSs3DHA.2 @tk2msftngp13.phx.gbl>, "DKF"

Everything might be OK.  Try using the network adapter.

If a computer only has one network adapter, the adapter name and
protocol name appear in the list of network components, with no
explicit indication of the binding.  For example:

   Client for Microsoft Networks
   Ethernet Adapter
   TCP/IP
   File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks

If a computer has more than one network adapter, the bindings are
shown explicitly.  For example:

   Client for Microsoft Networks
   Dial-Up Adapter
   Ethernet Adapter
   TCP/IP -> Dial-Up Adapter
   TCP/IP -> Ethernet Adapter
   File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks
