Hi Grant,

Does NDIS require the card to first of all work in Windows?  If so that 
would be a non-starter as the Win2K driver for the PCMCIA slot in my 
particular laptop causes a BSOD.  I've emailed Compaq about that and am 
awaiting a reply.  In the meantime if I can get the card functional in 
Linux, Windows can......... *g*

Kind regards,

Julian
