	Simple, when you remove all the other drivers, go to this one and
configure it! It's probally at 0x300 (the 'normal') default for most
network cards, I have no idea why that paticular driver defaults to 280
instead. Either that or take the configuration disk for the card and
change the address to 280. :)
