Well its a surecom I'm trying. Realtek chipset. A little different to the Dlink. Default card/vendor name pci10bd,320. Driver expects pci10ec,8139 Macsense card/vendor pci10ec,d8 (for comparsion) Onboard doesn't have one I could find
Card was installed as was the extension using the installer.
Surecom make good drivers for this chipset for windows but nothing for mac that I can see.
Well its not much of a test, i replaced the vendor and device id in the driver using the editor mentioned (ugly for a mac app) and uninstalled the driver (the unpatched version loaded fine, the card couldn't use it) then reinstalled the patched driver, restarted and system error bomb.
Not as badly as Gregg, I could reboot with the extensions off and remove the edited driver so I'm back to where I was. I may try a version of either MDK or YDL on the weekend, I'm not sure they support the Macsense card though. I may swap the realtek out of the server box and try that first.
I'm interested in the pci10bd part and guess its the bit causing trouble.
