I guess that's what PCI slots are for.. :) nvnet and ndis don't work for me too, but I haven't test with updated nvnet in ports yet. I disabled it in BIOS. I usually disable many stuff in BIOS if I don't use them or don't work with FreeBSD. :-) Cheers, Mezz > JN -- mezz7@cox.net - mezz@FreeBSD.org FreeBSD GNOME Team http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome/ - gnome@FreeBSD.org
