I am being persuaded that you are right. I'll have to look at the mother board to answer Dale's question; the machine and the nic card came from Fry's. I have had pretty good luck with Fry's in the past, but this has turned out to be a real pain.
What chip set, or what pci-e nic card would you recommend?
I've had good luck with Intel ethernet chips/cards, especially the server oriented ones.
