Krishnan, What do you mean by PNP in the context of PCI network cards? PNP - Plug And Play, was supposed to be a method for peripherals to get connected and start working without having to go through the hassles of restarting the machine.
If you are trying to imply that you can do a PNP on a PCI network card, I think there is something amiss, how can you plug in a PCI card into the machine while it is on?
That�s dangerous.
Please don't misguide people...
Ah, Mayuresh,
Foot in the mouth again, I see. Please read up on PCI and what it is before you hit that keyboard. Anyway, I'm rather late on this one - plenty of other people have pointed out your mistake.
Cheerio,
Krishnan
