Go to Intel's web pages and download the setup utility for your card.
Then use it to configure the card, so that it has a valid irq and memory
address.
They can be made to work, but I experienced some weirdness with the ie
driver such as you note. For example, I did an install over one from the
boot floppy, but when the machine rebooted it found and configured the
interface but I couldn't even ping anything!
