Trouble with Linksys EG1032 Gbit NIC on Windows XP

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware (More info?)

What are your settings for the NIC? Only suggestion would be to double
check the settings and the drivers. Start-Run-Type devmgmt.msc and
click OK. Expand Network Adapters and double click on the device. Check
thes settings again. Also, are there any different drivers available?
