Thank you Mauricio and Mark for fast response.

I will check again after reboot and as Mark recommend I will reseat the 
card. I will check BIOS too. As this is production machine I cannot do 
that now. I am going to buy another cheaper 1 Gb Intel card for testing 
purposes. I will report my results later.
