- | Hello fellow Banyanites,
- |
- | I've recently installed 3COM EtherLinkII/16 TP cards in some
- | IBM XTs.
- |
- | Some of the cards were rev. D1 but most were rev. E. With the rev. D1
- | card the 3C503BAN comm. driver takes 51360 bytes while the driver on
- | PCs with the rev. E card takes82064 bytes. The loss of 30KB MORE on
- | these XTs is killing some applications.
- |
-
- grant - are you sure that you don't have PCCONFIG on certain PCs loading
- 30 kb more of comm buffers? That's the one of the few ways that I know of
- these drivers changing size.
