This card uses the de0 driver. Works very well.  One problem I have seen
is that some PCI system BOIS's dont deal well with PCI-PCI bridges.
On the driver disk that comes with the card is a DOS program that
will tell the card how to deal with the offending BIOS. I dont have
the card manual in front of me but it is explained in there.

I havent tried this yet but I plan on it soon with on of the systems here.

I have had good luck running this card (not good luck with gated but....)
