OK no firmware is supposed to be included in the config line here but that is 
probably not the real problem

OK this is bad, this indicates a problem on the PCI bus (Bit 21 stuck high)
(DEV and SSID codes are probably OK because they are read as 16 bit quantites 
so dont use bit 21)

I would check that the slot and edge connector are clean and perhaps try 
another slot
