Hi Don,
	I have tried both with the machine connected and disconnected, it
still connects at 10mbit/half-duplex (and totally unable to talk to anything
else on the network).

Hope this helps

btw...doc's say to disconnect all cabling during install "UNTIL" asked
to connect, during configuration. Above...unless this is a
brain-fart...you say that "prior to booting" the nic is connected to a
switch. Have you followed the install directions or not ??

Don't forget the hidden options from previous post. I'd try the hidden
options before re-installing.
