Vivante XL, PII 300, 128 MB
NetGear FA 410 TX PC network card ... latest 3.0 driver for WinME.

Had Win98SE on this machine and upgraded to Windows ME. Card and network connections updated and loaded fine.
Had some partition problems, so I wiped it clean, and did a straight install of Windows ME.
ME apparently disables PC slots by default; when you enable it runs the Real-time driver check (just backwards from Win 98.) However, after verifying no real-time drivers present, it tries to load PCMCIA Card services and can't find a driver. It does, however, load the Card.
Go to Device Manager -- no network card listed. Network properties -- card is listed, but won't bind to anything.
Reboot in Safe Mode, PCMCIA Card services is listed under PC Cards and the Netgear card is listed under Network adapters.
This is driving me nuts -- I've wiped all driver files, rebuilt the Windows driver database, all same result.
Netgear lists one issue with WinME, but it's not quite the same.
Anyone else running in to this problem?

TIA
