If you have an Adaptec ANA-6911A/TX network adapter, the Windows 98
hardware detection process may incorrectly identify it as a PCI Fast

the PCI Fast Ethernet DEC 21143-based adapter.

adapter, and then use the Adaptec installation software included with
the network adapter to install the correct network adapter drivers.
