If SMC are right and the problem is the motherboard and not the card your PCI bus might well be fast enough. I'm sure you'd have noticed the problem by now because it makes my ethernet unusable! I'm talking to Sun SS-20s via a networth micro 100 repeater. netstat on the Suns reports input errors on the 100bTx card. Mark p.s. What class of PC are you using and what kind of data-rate are you getting with 100bTx mode?
