Please wrap your lines at 72-80 characters for those of us on text mail clients. I've not seen your specific error, but I have had all kinds of trouble using that NIC in a Pentium 166 of mine. My net card would work fine in an Athlon, but not in the older Pentium. I was able to get the module inserted, and it would appear, but all transmit packets were errors. I had to replace with older net cards to make use of the box. Perhaps you can scrounge up an ISA card or two no one else wants. They work just fine for those pentiums...
