Since you have an ISA slot available,
you certainly don't need anything more than
the T-9000-9, for $16.

I love the Byterunner 4-port boards, because
they use only one IRQ.

SIIG makes good products, too. I wonder why
yours doesn't work? If it's an ISA board, it
should work automatically, once you set the
jumpers. If it's a PCI board, maybe you forgot
to install the dos drivers and run the utilities?
