Need to know a bit more Info to be of any real help.
First thought though is a IRQ conflict.
If you have another open PCI slot try moving the Nic card to that slot. I have seen it happen many times with winblows 98 and 98se. Looking at device manager may also give you a clue ( look for the yellow question mark or exclamation point ). I have also seen times where ( according to device manager ) there is no conflict but the PC was slow accessing the internet, chaging PCI slots solved the problem.
You can also check in bios to see what IRQ the cards are assigned.
In most systems (Pre Windblows XP ) IRQ 11 should be reserved for Video card) then look at sound and the Nic, those 3 things should be on 3 different IRQ's.
Hope that helps
