Seems that I need a Packet Driver for my System. The documentation suggests that Clarkson Libraries is th e place to look. Any suggestions on an FTP anonymous site that I can access for these drivers ? It's pretty stupid of them not to include the following "howtoget.it" file: The Clarkson packet driver collection Availability The Clarkson collection of packet drivers is available by FTP, by archive-server, and by modem. They come in two flavors -- executables only (drivers.zip), and source+executables (driverss.zip). All of the following instructions apply to both drivers.zip and driverss.zip. Mail: I distribute the packet drivers on two 360K 5.25" disks, or a 720K 3.5" disk. I charge a fee for the service of copying and mailing these disks. You can send me a check for $20, or you can send me a purchse order and I will bill you for $22. NY residents add 7% sales tax, overseas orders add $3 for shipping. If you send a check, please be sure it is in US dollars -- the bank charges me $15 to convert checks drawn in foreign currencies.
