Just my two cents but.........

I know that when I was dual booting my win98/Mandrake laptop (and even in the 
LTSP clients we are playing with) that the network card holds it's settings 
through reboot.  Only after a power down does it release the network 
settings.  This may or may not be true as well with the "always hot" 
motherboards.
