I remember that one from last time I had to beat a pc into submission
before it worked, though I can't remember at which stage it came.
It was either the missed interrupt due to int 10 being reserved for the
pci bus, or the timeouts because the card was set to autodetect the
connector and stupidly picked the BNC instead of RJ-45 connector, since I
can't remember which was the cause I'll give both as possibilities.
Make sure int 10 is marked as ISA/LEGACY, non pci/pnp in your bios setup
and make sure the card uses the right connector.

Plug'n'play works wonders in the environment it was designed for
ie. any periferal can be set to anything.
This is NOT a description of any existing hardware.
