My card says it's: 3C590C ^ 03-0046-001 REV D ^^^ ^ I have the 3C595, assy # 03-0027-001 rev C. I have a different card which explains the version number differences.

If the bit is set to 1 it means the bug has been fixed. Unless the driver totally botched the test the message should be valid. (I haven't looked at that specific part of the driver code ...) --lyndon
