Joseph, The first thing I'd look for is the cards PCI Vendor and Device ID.
if you can put the card in a machine and boot linux from a harddisk, then run: lspci -n Look for the lines that say 'Class 0200'. Those are the network cards. See if you get the proper 10ec:8139 value. Also, check the bios settings on your machine. On some, you need to enable 'Boot from LAN' to make it work.
