i recommend esstech pci cards (solo, maestro, allegro). they are now 
discontinued but they should still be around in surplus stores. they are the 
easiest to work with in DOS; one file goes in the config.sys, another in 
autoexec. no need for emm386exe/himem.sys. in my experience, if they fail on 
the mobo, it would be near impossible to use other/newer pci cards on the same 
mobo -- at least you can tell early if you want to push through with your setup.

i ripped the esstech dos drivers from the win9x vxd drivers, which requires 
win9x to install:
