Just for grins, did you try booting the -current install floppies
and see if that would bring up the card?  Did you look at the 
stats on the access point to see if it sees the card, etc?

I have one card that does what you describe under Win2k.  I think
the card is bad.  I've tried it on several laptops with similar
results.  It associates with the AP, but then nothing.....
