I remember that some PCMIA ethernet cards use a point type driver which enables the card independent of the general OS/2 PCMCIA drivers. You may try disabling the general OS/2 enabler for the particular slot you are placing the card in. It may also be necessary to reserve the IRQ / IO resources required by the card at the beginning of config sys. But I'd try step one first, and see how you go. Good luck.
