Data from device manager's NIC's properties:
IO: 0x240
IRQ: 05

Insmod commands (taken from ~/netsetup script):
-------
insmod 8390
insmod ne io=0x240
-------
Insmodding ne results with error that card couldn't be found.

I have tried many IO adresses between 240 and 320:
0x240
0x250
0x260
0x270
0x280
0x290
0x300
0x310
0x320

Maybe IO adresses could differ because it was in different computers?

Note: I will get error reports and describe more detailed behaviour at
morning (it's currently 00:25)
