While I admit I\'m no tekkie, I have installed a few PCI cards in my day. I\'m running XP pro, and when they built it I didn\' t know If I\'d be getting a DSL, so they just put a 56k in. I\'ve installed the board, (tried twice in 2 diff. slots) installed the WOL wire, And windows does not detect new hardware. Maybe a faulty card? Tried running the install software and it says there\'s no LAN card present. In the device manager, it says there is an ethernet device (not my model) but there\'s no PCI card. ummmmm.............
