The problem is that your VIA chipset (or rather the chipset as used on at least some of the boards out there) will corrupt your data if this setting is not done.

I also had my 3c905 behave this way with ac21. ac20 is ok. System uses an ABit kt7a board.

Ok the further VIA bitfiddling with the pci config is causing the problems it seems.
