I have just recently upgraded to W2K and have a network problem. I have 2 network cards in my main machine, 1 for the cable modem and 1 for the connection to the other machines in the house. But I cannot get Windows to deal with both cards at the same time, It will only allow me to use one or the other, so Internet or LAN, but not both. If anyone can suggest anything it would be much appriciated, thanks

This has never been a problem for me - neither on XP or Win2K. Tried upgrading the NIC drivers?

"It is precisely because it is fashionable for Americans to know no science, even though they may be well educated otherwise, that they so easily fall prey to nonsense. They thus become part of the armies of the night, the purveyors of nitwittery, the retailers of intellectual junk food, the feeders on mental cardboard, for their ignorance keeps them from distinguishing nectar from sewage."

Thanks for your responce, I am relieved to hear that it does work, I did have the 2000 drivers installed and both cards performed there tasks independantly. When i go into control panel and i select share files/internet it turns the other card off.
