Re: can i use 2 lan cards in 1 pc

Yes,

It's called Internet Connection Sharing.

Setting up Internet Connection Sharing (Windows 98)

Setting up Internet Connection Sharing (Windows 2000)

Setting up Internet Connection Sharing (Windows XP)

If none of the above links help, just Google "internet connection sharing" and you'll find all the help you'll ever need.
