Quote: Oh? It was a EtherExpress Pro based thing? If so then yeah, it should have worked without any problems.
Intel did cock up Etherexpress Pro at one stage -- they released a generic Windows driver for the whole range, then came out with a newer chip which the generic driver thought it knew how to drive, but didn't. Sorting that out was a chore (this was NT4 era IIRC), especially as the line of investigation I used above (what PCI VID and PID is it? what VID and PID is it meant to be?) was nothing like so straightforward to discover.
