Title: incompatible with my motherboard
Review: Tried using this to upgrade my old Asus P4P800-VM (Intel 865g based mobo) to Gigabit ethernet. Long story short... every time I rebooted my machine the BIOS/NVRAM forgot about this card and I would have to open the case and unplug/replug the card into the slot. Talk about a nightmare.Ultimately switched this Encore card out for a TRENDnet TEG-PCITXR and haven't had the problem since (even though both cards I received are based on the same chipset). So, for the extra 3 dollars I'm (obviously) happier with the TEG-PCITXR; at least I can now reboot the machine without having to spend 45 minutes opening and closing the case.Strange problem, I know... but it's the God's honest truth. Not sure if it's just the card they sent me or the model itself, still I'm guessing it's not my motherboard since all my other PCI cards work as does the TEG-PCITXR that I've ultimately settled on.
Is the review positive or negative?
