After I replied last time I had cause to find a driver for the nVIDIA MCP NIC chip built-in to my Asus A7N266-VM mainboard and found that drivers for that is still under development...

He does have "As-is" drivers to try. -- To reply by e-mail edit this address to the correct form: vbien at attglobal dot net
