DOS or Windows? IRQ sharing or not?

In my Windows XP environment, I have had good luck with the CompUSA "house" 
brand (FMI) 2S/1P card:

         http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?product_code=271773

This card uses standard NetMOS drivers.  It's an IRQ-sharing card. It's 
significantly cheaper than name-brand (SIIG etc.) cards.
