RE: Intel EPro 100 Weirdness



They should have some flashable nvram, though... which couldn't hurt... Or
it could even be a really odd bad card-- I've had cards go bad that really
aren't apparent until you swap them out, and -presto- it's all better.

Well, the cards are, literally, internal little daughterboards.  They have a
slot your remove on the bottom of the laptop, you pop it out, etc.  We've
been simply removing the internal HDs and moving them from computer to
computer.

Doing this, we've figured out that his configuration works fine with my
hardware, but not his, and vice versa.  His physical hardware seems to be
the
problem.

But, yeah, I guess we could swap cards as well.  I'll try this next time I
see him.

Thanks,
