More research has turned up that the card purchased does not work in
newer operating systems, Linux or Windows. Acts like driver interrupts
are not working properly. Switch lights look correct, but could not find

the card. Oddly PCI Express cards for network interfaces are non existent
locally. Plenty of the older PCI cards.
