Hi Charles. Thank you and Terry Erickson for your responses.
Boy do I feel stupid now that I know what the problem was...
My IRQs and I/O's were all OK, it's just that the cable that I thought was
a crossover wasn't. For some reason without  a link, the card just wasn't
showing up at all.

Now that I have that fixed up, everything looks good so far.

Thanks again for taking the time to help! I really appreciate it.

Allan
