Works great with 98SE.......2006-04-11

I bought this card to install on an older windows 98SE PC. I had purchased a Linksys card for this machine. The linksys card would not install. So after many wasted hours, I returned the Linksys card and bought this Belkin.

I had the Belkin up and operational in less than an hour and had no issues during install. The system has been running on our home network for a week with no issues.

works great with windows xp.......2004-09-19

I had to replace my old net card since my internet conection was slow. The instalation could not be eaiser. All I had to do was replace the old card and put in the new card. Windows xp did the rest. It found the new card and installed it all on its own.

not a problem.......2004-06-26

Saw the previous comments so I had the Realtek drivers to hand but they weren't required as I didn't have a single problem installing it on my older Win98se machine. And a bonus - it seems to transfer files faster than the previous 10/100 card that I'd been borrowing from a friend (and thought it was time I returned it!) - a sound purchase at 9 GB pounds, and that was from a High Street retailer!

Win98 drivers it comes with are no good.......2004-06-07

If not for the comment left by Keith Peterson from Bridgeport, CT USA I would not have been able to get this working. I spent hours frustrated because the Win98 drivers that came in the box would not install. There online chat tech support left me waiting for upwards of 45 minutes before I gave up on them. I had to install the Realtek drivers to get it to work.

Great card, little trouble setting up.......2004-04-03

I installed the card on an older Gateway machine with Win98 installed. The card was recognized in the Device Manager but not seen in the Network area. After some surfing I discovered the chipset it uses, Realtek 8139A, downloaded that driver and after installing, everything was recognized and now my network is humming along with no problems. I would have given the card 5 stars if it wasn't for the small driver issue.
