Since you already has a NIC installed, you don't want to install a new
NIC, you want to change the current configuration to use the new NIC.

This is done with MPTS.  I forget the exact names on eCS 2.1, but here
it's

  Local System -> System Setup -> Adapters and Protocols

to start MPTS.  Click the configure button to proceed.  Then select 
the Adapters and Protocols radio button and click the Configure 
button.

Select the old NIC in the Current Configuration listbox.  Select the 
new NIC in the Network Adapters listbox.   Click the Change button 
below the Network Adapters listbox.  Review and access the changes.

This assumes that the Pro100 is already one of the available NICs, 
which I think should be the case.  If not, find a copy of the driver 
and copy it along with the NIF file to the \IBMCOM\MACS directory and 
try again.
