You really did not provide any useful information. When you load module what is displayed on console? What is displayed if you change debug.ndis sysctl to 1?

I hope it's the former. I had enough problems trying to get my Broadcom card (mini-pci - BCM94306MP) to work that i gave up and just plug it in. I would get it installed and it would panic. You seem to have avoided that . . . good. What .sys and .inf files are you using? From what I understand, you need/should try a bunch 'til one works.
