Hi I've found the drivers for the prism 54g to be excellent - I bought a card when I was in the UK, but maybe you could find one of the cards on this list somewhere:
http://www.prism54.org/supported_cards.php I had real trouble finding a PCI based card - a lot of the 54g ones are software based... I also have an Avaya/Lucent Gold (orinoco) PCMCIA card that works really well. Perhaps a PCMCIA card with a PCI adaptor is an option for you? HTH Rob.
